In the end, the sources I used for describing the evolutions of the definition of Scrum are: The paper “SCRUM Software Development Process” by Ken Schwaber (1995, 1996). The book “Agile Software Development with Scrum” by Ken Schwaber and Mike Beedle (2002). The book “The Enterprise and Scrum” by Ken Schwaber (2007).

I believe Agile software development is more than ready to use new forecasting techniques to express uncertainy to narrow their decision-making process. These new forecasting techniques are not based on estimations but historical data, thus saving time on the part of developers to focus on what they do best.
