  abstract = {Agile development is an approach for managing and building software projects and teams, in order to satisfy
customers by providing adaptive planning, evolutionary development, early delivery and continuous improvement. It is a
collection of methodologies such as Extreme Programming (XP), Scrum and Feature Driven Development (FDD). Even if
agile methods are rapid and flexible to change, they still suffer from some problems example, difficulty of estimating the effort
required at the beginning of the development software life cycle, especially for large projects. Also, it is important to keep
design phases sufficiently long to allow for a real maturation of needs and avoid reflection based only on reactions to what
has been developed, which can lead to a lot of reworking. As a first step towards a new agile method, this paper aims to
provide a comparative study of available agile methods in order to propose a new model-based method.},
