Disciplined Agile Outsourcing: Making it work for both the customer and the s...
Outsourcing projects suffer from two significant yet easily addressed problems. First, the customer’s instincts for how to run an outsourced project are more likely to hurt rather than help them. Second, service providers (SPs) prove to be little more than order takers that don’t have the courage to negotiate a winning strategy. The Disciplined Agile Delivery (DAD) process decision framework provides the foundation needed to succeed at “agile offshoring” by addressing the needs of both the customer and the SP. DAD is a goal-driven, hybrid agile, full delivery methodology that is enterprise aware and scalable. DAD provides a foundation from which you can tailor a viable strategy for disciplined agile outsourcing. This presentation explores strategies for effectively initiating and governing an outsourced IT delivery project in an agile manner. Outsourcing introduces a collection of risks that can be uniquely addressed with a disciplined agile strategy.
During this presentation you will learn:
• What the Disciplined Agile Delivery (DAD) framework is.
• The risks associated with outsourcing.
• Disciplined agile outsourcing from the point of view of the customer.
• Disciplined agile outsourcing from the point of view of the service provider.
• What you need to do to succeed at disciplined agile outsourcing.
• Industry statistics regarding agile outsourcing in practice
• Criteria to determine if you’re ready for outsourcing IT delivery projects.
Continuous Architecture and Emergent Design: Disciplined Agile Strategies

Agile enterprise architecture
Enterprise architecture (EA) can potentially promote a common business vision within your organization, provide guidance to improve both business and IT decision making, and improve IT efficiencies. Unfortunately many EA teams struggle to provide these benefits, often because they are perceived as ivory tower or being too difficult to work with.
The adoption of disciplined agile and lean strategies that are based on collaboration, enablement, and streamlining the flow of work are the keys to EA success. Disciplined strategies that produce light-weight, yet still sufficient, artifacts are the key to your success. This presentation explores both the success factors and failure factors surrounding EA, pragmatic strategies for a lean/agile approach to EA, and how EA is supported and enhanced by the Disciplined Agile framework. This isn’t your grandfather’s EA strategy.

Liver functions, disorders and diagnostic tests - ppt
The liver has many important functions including metabolism, synthesis of proteins and coagulation factors, and storage. Liver dysfunction can be caused by viral hepatitis, alcoholism, cirrhosis, cancer, genetic disorders, and other conditions. Liver function tests are used to detect and assess liver disease by measuring enzymes, bilirubin, albumin, and coagulation factors. While no single test fully evaluates liver function, together they can help distinguish between hepatocellular damage, cholestasis, and impaired synthetic function. Interpretation requires considering the clinical context along with multiple test results.

BBP PROs and CONs on CITRIX
Citrix provides several advantages for healthcare providers including the ability to access medical applications from any treatment room or office through a single roaming session. This allows providers to access patient records and documentation tools more quickly and reduces errors. For IT staff, Citrix allows centralized management and updates of applications rather than installing on each individual workstation. However, Citrix requires additional training for users and if the Citrix session hangs, it freezes the user's access until resolved. The Citrix equipment is also reaching end of life in some locations.
