Estimation maturity model using function pointsBhupinder Singh
While there are many models for measuring maturity of software organizations, little attention has been paid to factoring estimation maturity into these models. This true even for CMMI, which is an otherwise very a rigorous model.
This presentation suggests adopting an Estimation Maturity model suggested by Galorath and using the Function Point estimation technique to achieve this goal.

Risk identification checklists can be helpful when identifying potential risk areas. A template is designed to help you determine whether there are inherent risks to your project. The results should be used as guidelines, since there will be other factors that may lower or raise the risk level. For instance, you may have a large project, which implies higher risk. This risk could be reduced if you also have an experienced project manager. Depending on where your project characteristics fall, you can evaluate whether your risk is high, medium, or low. If your project has many high-risk characteristics, it does not mean you will not be successful. However, it does mean that you should put a plan into place to manage the risk.

PROJECT MANAGEMENT
HANDOUT- I
Managing the Information Systems
Project:
Defining and Planning an information
system project
Introduction
• Project management (PM) may be the most important aspect of systems
development.
• Effective PM helps to ensure
• The meeting of customer expectations.
• The satisfying of budget and time constraints.
• The nature of projects has changed from custom development to
implementing packaged software such as ERP and data warehousing.
• PM needs to be able to work well with vendors and diverse user
community.

Understand your data dependencies – Key enabler to efficient modernisation Profinit
Modernising any system is a comprehensive task. Every step has to be estimated, appropriately planned, then carefully executed and verified. Data with its dependencies are the common denominator in almost every case and crucial in understanding the whole initiative.
In this webinar, experts from Profinit and Manta will present their approach to resolving data-related challenges while modernising software systems using Profinit Modernisation Framework in collaboration with Manta tools.
Process mining is a technology from the field of business process management, it creates and analyzes business processes on the basis of digital traces in IT systems. Unlike conventional business process analysis, process mining uses event logs to automatically generate a process model. That gives a detailed overview about all the process instances. Potential bottlenecks during the process flow can be detected in the analysis. In the project described, a change management process in co-operation with the MLP Finanzdienst-leistungen AG has been analyzed. The most common tools were used and further-more compared in detail.
This document has 2 pages, very similar but adapted for both teams who worked independently.

This presentation, created by Syed Faiz ul Hassan, explores the profound influence of media on public perception and behavior. It delves into the evolution of media from oral traditions to modern digital and social media platforms. Key topics include the role of media in information propagation, socialization, crisis awareness, globalization, and education. The presentation also examines media influence through agenda setting, propaganda, and manipulative techniques used by advertisers and marketers. Furthermore, it highlights the impact of surveillance enabled by media technologies on personal behavior and preferences. Through this comprehensive overview, the presentation aims to shed light on how media shapes collective consciousness and public opinion.

BPMinDIT-Increasing control in construction processes
1. Increasing Control in
Construction Processes
The Role of Digitalization

2. • Research project: COCkPiT
Collaborative Construction Process Management
• Partners:
Computer scientists, construction companies (SMEs),
industrial and construction engineers
• Obj:
Improve Construction Process Management
• Motivation:
Construction processes are
wasteful (material, time, labor, ...)
A Bit of Context
2
Increase digitalization
Develop methodologies
Design tools
Increase the usage of data
to increase control over processes
4. Gantt Charts
• Are well established and easy to understand
• Tools supporting them (CPM, resource usage,…)
• Overall view of the process
4
They capture construction processes in a coarse manner
• Too abstract (w.r.t. daily activities)
• Lack of proper abstraction (e.g., for locations)
• Don’t support analysis, actual progress and updates
Not suitable for “Operative Management”
7. Operative Planning
Done “On the Fly” by the foreman without
proper support
• Trade-off between details and time span
• No medium-term planning
• Difficult to evaluate alternatives
• Difficult to synchronize with the supply chain
• No explicit definition of process requirements
• Commitment to one way of doing the work
• FM as a single point of failure
• Difficult to record the current project state

9. Digitalization: Enabler of New Processes
Digitalization allow one to
handle more details
• Increase control
(performed vs planned)
• Decrease waste
Details Control

Modelling

Medium-
Term

10. Process models to collect
process requirements
• Solving the
single point of failure
• Introducing the right
abstractions and details
• Automatically compute
alternatives

11. Digitalization:
Short- Medium-Term Execution Planning
Supports:
• Detailed planning for
medium time-span
• Synchronization
(e.g., supply chain)
• Identification and
reaction to problems
• Evaluation of
alternatives
11
CoSMos
Weekly scheduling
12. Digitalization: Monitoring and Analysis
Measure the project state
• Current progress
• Execution plan
actualization &
rescheduling
• Planned vs performed
analysis
• Reliable forecasts

CoSMos
Weekly monitoring
Weekly scheduling
13. Details Control
Conclusion
• Construction processes are wasteful
• Increase the usage of data in construction process
management to increase control
• Increase details requires digitalization
• We propose a methodology consisting of
• Process modeling
• Short- and medium-term planning
• Monitoring and
• Analysis
• Demonstrator tools: CoPMod & CoSMos
13
The idea is that increasing the usage of data in Construction process management we can improve it and reduce waste
To support this idea we develop methodologies and support them by increasing digitalization
to improve construction process management, we develop methodologies that are based on an increased usage of data
which require support by digitalization
Without proper tools only planning for short (weekly/ daily durations are possible)
This way of managing the work creates wastes because of several reasons:
- difficult to recognize problems early on
- a deal is recognized only when already occurred
- also because the project sate cannot be measured
, it is difficult to react to imponderabilities because there is no proper supports and a delay is recognized only when already occurred, the current state of the process cannot be measured and so on.
We see Digitalization as enabler of new processes, in the sense that current problems in construction can be reduced by increasing the level of details considered in process management
To better tackle the problem of increasing details and digitalization we divide process management into four activities
