Abstract

Effective task allocation is critical in Agile software development, yet most optimization-based approaches treat it as a purely technical scheduling problem and disregard behavioral factors such as motivation, fairness, and engagement. This study proposes a Hybrid Salp Swarm Optimization–Behavioral Nudge Framework (HSSO–BNF) for developer–task allocation that integrates technical constraints with human-centered cues. The model formulates allocation as a multi-objective function combining workload balance, skill mismatch, deadline penalties, and a motivation score derived from three nudge components: Motivational Cue (MC), Social Comparison (SC), and Effort–Reward Feedback (ERF). These behavioral signals are embedded directly into the SSO position update and fitness evaluation, enabling the swarm to adapt simultaneously to performance and motivational states. Experiments on real developer–task records collected from GitHub compare HSSO–BNF against GA, PSO, and standard SSO using convergence behavior, allocation cost, fairness, satisfaction, and motivation dynamics. The results show that HSSO–BNF achieves faster and more stable convergence, reduces allocation cost by approximately 32% compared with GA and SSO and about 25% compared with PSO, and improves workload fairness and developer satisfaction while preserving psychologically sustainable specialization patterns. Heatmap visualizations and motivation trends further confirm that the behavioral layer produces more coherent and interpretable task assignments, indicating that behavior-aware metaheuristics are a promising direction for intelligent, human-centered task allocation in Agile teams.
