Abstract:
Even though Scrum is nowadays widely known in the Software Industry field and its theoretical frame extensively described in the literature, its implementation is far from being straightforward. As a matter of fact, the literature describes a meta-process that new practitioners must adapt to their project specific constraints. However, this practical aspect is crucial and very scarcely tackled. To that extend, this thesis work describes the difficulties we faced while putting Scrum into practice and how, through the study of the project contextual factors, the insight of a Proof Of Concept and

This study presents a new perspective on work practice in conceptual art. Using ethnographic evidence from five visual artists, the study used a combined visual arts and practice orientated perspective to explore the materiality of their everyday work and the sociomaterial practices shaping it. Close scrutiny is given to the forms of expertise embedded in this through concepts of knowing-in-practice and epistemic objects. Emerging from the findings is clearer understanding of how an arts-based methodology might enhance knowledge about artists’ knowing-in-practice. Popular representations of co

Abstract:
The world of Marketing is a multifaceted broad discipline and over recent years it has fundamentally changed. Marketing is consistently evolving and many authors are calling for a new definition.

The recent Contemporary Marketing Practice series of research has looked at describing Marketing practices within the marketing context. This programme analyses the multiple disciplines within marketing. It does not, however deconstruct or examine marketing practices. It merely examines the
