Crowdsourcing, when used with agile, faces challenges because of the different development methodologies. Agile development methodology has practices that involve face-to-face frequent interaction, whereas crowdsourcing is a distributed development with no or limited face-to-face interaction. Both concepts are actively being used in the software development industry due to their benefits. However, there is a need to explore the integration of both methodologies for an effective and efficient software development. In this regard, the first step is to identify the challenges of integrating crowdsourcing and agile. In this paper, we intend to identify the possible challenges that may be faced while executing agile along with crowdsourcing. For this, we have conducted a Systematic Literature Review. Five main categories of challenges are presented which are: team issues, coordination and communication issues, organizational issues, project-related issues and task-related issues. A list of possible challenges of Agile\u2013Crowd Software Development (ACSD) is presented in this study. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1142\/s0218126623300015","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,8,24]],"date-time":"2022-08-24T08:52:09Z","timestamp":1661331129000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Challenges of Agile\u2013Crowd Software Development: A Systematic Literature Review"],"prefix":"10.1142","volume":"32","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8375-3598","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Shamaila","family":"Qayyum","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Computer Science and Software Engineering, International Islamic University Islamabad, H-10, Islamabad 44000, Pakistan"}]},{"given":"Salma","family":"Imtiaz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Computer Science and Software Engineering, International Islamic University Islamabad, H-10, Islamabad 44000, Pakistan"}]},{"given":"Huma Hayat","family":"Khan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Software Engineering, National University of Modern Languages, Islamabad 44000, Punjab, Pakistan"}]}],"member":"219","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,9,21]]},"reference":[{"key":"S0218126623300015BIB001","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/TITS.2021.3119921"},{"key":"S0218126623300015BIB002","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"102572","DOI":"10.1016\/j.scs.2020.102572","volume":"65","author":"Javed A.
