Abstract

This paper studies the problem of coordination and supervision of virtual
teams and their capabilities. The goal is to develop a model suitable for
managing virtual student teams specialized in the development of
smart environments. The developed model is based on SAFe and
DevOps, which when combined provide us with a framework for the
evaluation of team capabilities in an academic environment.
Additionally, DevOps principles can be more efficiently leveraged
through an agile methodology to provide students with a better
understanding of continuous value delivery. Through the application of
the proposed model, virtual student teams gained practical experience
in self-organization and virtual team management while being
efficiently monitored and guided through the project lifecycle. Virtual
student teams were likewise encouraged to be more agile, as this
change in mindset is imperative in business, and as such must also be
adopted in academic environments. By incorporating best practices of
the corporate environments into the existing curriculum, we have
proven that by adopting the proposed model these changes can be
feasibly incorporated to the satisfaction of both the students and their
future employers.
