Abstrakt: Common practice in agile delivery planning is based on user requirements-related artifacts. However, an aspect of business process alignment to software product functions comes into focus in the phase of inception of enterprise-aware disciplined agile software projects. This research proposes a method for mapping business process model elements to sets of semantically coupled and prioritized software functions to obtain ordered software product backlog, i.e., work items list. These software functions are derived from primitive business processes and software functional patterns. The mapping table enables assignment of primitive business processes to categorized software functions. Derived and prioritized software functions are related to a work item list pattern according to selected technology implementation. This way, a prioritized work items list is formulated, which enables development iteration planning. This method could be useful in software functional design alternatives comparison, change management, multi-project integration of software modules to support business processes in information systems, etc. Feasibility of the proposed method has been demonstrated with a case study, related to the development of a billing and reporting software utilized in a private hospital. This case study shows usability of the proposed method in the case of two related development projects that enable software functionality enhancement. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
