Enhancing Usability in Aerospace Software Development Processes Through Gamification / Förbättrad användbarhet i mjukvaruutvecklingsprocesser inom flygindustrin genom spelifiering

Alexandersson, Joel, Choura, Lucia January 2024 (has links)
This thesis explores the integration of gamification into the Software Development Process (SDP) at Saab, a defense and aerospace company. The thesis aims to address some of the complexities of the SDP standard used in the industry, DO-178C. The research primarily focuses on how gamification principles can enhance the usability of software development processes in aerospace. The method includes a pre-study, an inception phase, and two sprints, where a gamified tool is designed, implemented, and revised based on feedback from developers at Saab. The results of interviews after these sprints, along with insights from the inception phase, are discussed to evaluate the effectiveness and impact of the gamified tool.  The findings indicate that gamification can make the SDP more approachable and engaging for developers, with elements like real-time progress tracking, quizzes, and certificates being well-received. However, the effectiveness of these gamification elements varies among individuals, underscoring the importance of tailoring these elements to user preferences and the specific context of aerospace software development. This research contributes to the understanding of gamification's role in improving SDP usability in the aerospace industry, highlighting the need for careful customization of gamification to individuals and the context. Although the study provides valuable insights, it also acknowledges limitations, including the hypothetical nature of the gamified tool used and the reliance on user feedback, suggesting future research should involve more practical implementations and a focus on long-term impacts on productivity and user satisfaction.
