The fundamentals of agile software development address the improvement and management of software development practices within individual teams. They can support the earlier and quicker production of the code by dividing the product into small segments called iterations. The agile methods are well known for their focus on quality and higher morale of stakeholders. The agile software development improves the product usability when it is leveraged with the practice of frequently testing the user screens that is being developed by the agile team. The user experience designs, their needs and goals were monitored frequently when a technique such as scrum is being adopted. This paper contains a case study to empirically illustrate quality of a product by the usage and the adoption of the scrum technique with the experiences of the user team and the project team on a live software project. It also narrates how effective is the Agile methodology in handling the unstable or changing requirements throughout the software development life cycle.

Concrete is a composite material made from cement, water, fine aggregate and coarse aggregate Increase of cement production and disposal of waste materials into the environment results in adverse impact on the environment. Present study is focused on finding partial replacement for cement by waste materials or waste products that are harmful to the environment. Stone dust a waste obtained from quarrying process is used as partial replacement of cement and the effect of this replacement on the basic properties like standard consistency; initial setting time, final setting time and compressive strength of cement mortar were analyzed. Addition of stone dust up to 5 to 7.5% results in strength development with consistency and setting time values being within specified limits as per IS codes.Keywords
