The government has increasingly been asking for contractors to use Agile methodologies to write and deliver better software. Environmental and contractual obligations often make that a hard thing to do. Add to the challenge the project's requirement to also adhere to SDLC processes, and you've got quite a challenge on your hands. What do you do, and how do you handle it?
SRA International's Robert Sfeir and David Kane discuss how to go about mapping and integrating Agile philosophies and methodologies in different situations, discuss experiences from the trenches, and offer an informative approach to solving some of these problems.
The Return on Investment of Computational Fluid Dynamics
Measuring the ROI of Fast and Reliable Computational
Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is not always straightforward. In this presentation, we are demonstrating the positive ROI of CFD using different point of views.
(1) Advantages and cost-savings of using CFD simulation both early and often during the development.
(2) Avoiding costly downtime or product failures.
(3) The ROI of CFD simulation to optimize product performance.
(4) The cost of choosing the wrong simulation tool.
(5) Some tips for you to answer the questions: “Would I benefit from using fast and reliable CFD?”.

REEP[1]
The document discusses the REEP (Refurbishment Evaluation and Prioritisation Process) tool for evaluating existing buildings and deciding which to refurbish versus demolish when undertaking a design project involving both new construction and refurbishment. The REEP process involves workshops with key stakeholders to identify priorities, score existing building elements, and select a preferred refurbishment option. It provides a consistent, flexible approach that considers functionality, sustainability, and life cycle costs to optimize design excellence and value.

This document discusses fundamentally changing how construction projects are delivered by challenging the status quo of traditional project management. It advocates for using 4D modeling and scheduling tools to improve project planning, safety, communication, and results. Examples are given of how 4D modeling was used on offshore gas, power plant, and water treatment construction projects to validate schedules, test for conflicts, support decisions, collect daily field data, and analyze progress. The vision is that 4D project planning and scheduling will modernize the industry, provide vital support, and create competitive advantage.
Requirements Decision Making through Architecturally Significant Requirements
This document discusses research into improving requirements decision making through architecturally significant requirements (ASRs). The research aims to understand how requirements decisions are made in enterprise software development, identify key challenges and opportunities, determine how to identify ASRs, and use these findings to enhance decision making. The research was conducted through a case study at Avaya involving surveys, interviews, and observations. Key contributions include a framework for identifying ASRs, empirical evidence on common requirements issues, and recommendations for integrating ASRs into decision making processes.
Java Caps5.1.X vs JavaCAPS 6
This document compares Java CAPS 5.1.X and Java CAPS 6. Some key differences are:
1. Design time - Java CAPS 6 introduces a new project/environment explorer and tabs for projects and services.
2. Deployment - Java CAPS 6 allows for repository based, JBI based, and J2EE based applications to be managed from a single IDE.
3. Management - Java CAPS 6 allows applications to be deployed, undeployed, disabled, and enabled from NetBeans. It also allows viewing logs and starting/stopping app servers from within NetBeans without needing to access domain log folders.

Lean And Kanban From The Trenches by Vijay Bandaru - Lean India Summit
This document outlines the transformation of an organization from a traditional to a Lean/Kanban structure. It describes the existing siloed structure organized around products and services and the new structure organized around cross-functional areas. The LeanOps inception established cadences, goal setting, and metrics to track improvements. Challenges were addressed by applying Lean principles like eliminating waste, building quality in, and continuous improvement. Metrics showed reductions in release duration, downtime, and rework as well as improvements in quality, on-time delivery, and customer satisfaction.
