Abstract
is a trend of the last decade that mixes values and practices from the Agile software engineering methods and the User-Centered Design. Several practitioners have proposed different processes to organize the work between development and design. After a short reminder of the values of Agile and User Centered Design methods, this paper presents five processes proposed in the literature. The processes are discussed with regards to their respect of the Agile and User Centered Design values. This comparative study concludes that not one process totally covers the Agile and User Centered Design values: they all make a trade-off and could be completed by practices and by a state of mind and a willingness adopted by the team.
