Summary: | This paper presents an educational simulation model for integrating AI agents into software development teams. The model is proposed for use by master's students in IT project management courses to study the effectiveness of this type of AI application, which the authors call "symbio coding". By reviewing the existing literature, we identify a research gap in understanding the practical implementation and impact of AI agents in traditional and agile software development methodologies. We propose a simulation model of an organizational structure for integrating AI into the software development process (Waterfall and Agile), describing potential roles, benefits, and challenges. Finally, we propose a simulation experiment to evaluate the effectiveness of this approach, focusing on assessing the reduction in development time due to the use of AI agents. |
