Lean Kanban India 2018 | WIP decides Lead Time, Delivery Rate and Flow Effic...LeanKanbanIndia
Session Title: WIP decides Lead Time, Delivery Rate and Flow Efficiency
Session Overview:
We all are familiar with Kanban metrics. When we adopt Kanban, we want to achieve shorter Lead Time, higher delivery rate and better flow efficiency. How do we achieve all of this? The master key is WIP limit. Together, let’s look at different scenarios to understand impact of WIP limit on all three... Is there some magic formula? What does the data say... what are the findings so far?
Kanban in software development: A systematic literature reviewMuhammad Ahmad
Using of Kanban in software development is an emerging topic. This systematic literature review was conducted in order to analyse the current trend of Kanban usage in software development and to identify the obtained benefits and involved challenges. The search strategy resulted in 492 papers, of which 19 were identified as primary studies relevant to our research. The main reported benefits of using the Kanban method were improved lead time to deliver software, improved quality of software, improved communication and coordination, increased consistency of delivery, and decreased customer reported defects. The reported challenges included lack of knowledge and specialized training as well as various organizational issues. Additionally, suggested practices were extracted from the primary studies and summarized for guiding the practitioners interested in adopting Kanban. The findings of this literature review are intended for helping researchers and practitioners to gain a better understanding of the current state of Kanban usage in software development.
Remo Biagio shares his experiences of transforming the BI Development Team at Callcredit from using a DSDM iteration-based approach towards Kanban. This presentation includes the learnings taken and the benefits gained such as stakeholder engagement, speed and quality.
Deployment pipelines seem to go hand in hand with any mention of DevOps. Why do pipelines matter and how do the principles of DevOps intertwine with the idea of treating everything as an artifact in a pipeline?
Choosing business management software presentationAnnette Manias
How to choose business management software especially beneficial if you are a CPA in private business and looking for a new software, or giving advice to clients. Get back on your feet, learn about implementations, types of deployments, advantages and disadvantages of the cloud and more.
Deliver on time and improve communication with the business to minimize project failure.
Your Challenge
The Agile evangelists are having trouble converting others to the Agile philosophy.
Your team is facing pressure to deliver projects in a smaller time frame. The Waterfall approach is causing projects to go over budget, misunderstanding of project owners’ expectations, and late delivery to the end-customer.
Projects that get implemented successfully may be susceptible to problems as the software gets older and crucial changes are too expensive.
A consolidation roadmap that is based on an easy-to-implement method will ease the burden on resource and infrastructure maintenance.
Our Advice
Critical Insight
Agile is not suitable for all organizations, or all projects. Carefully select pilot projects that have the greatest chance of success and determine the right requirements or risk significant cost overruns to fix problems or roll back development.
An Agile rollout may require peripheral projects to be accelerated.
Agile will modify internal roles and processes. Get ready for change management.
Impact and Result
Agile will improve communication and transparency between teams and stakeholders, which will lead to higher quality products and fluid team dynamics.
The success of the Agile pilot should be used to build the case for an organizational-wide deployment.
In order for your organization to stay competitive, it must place focus on delivering projects at a quicker pace with the right features.

Translation quality evaluation is challenging and costly for many companies, often representing the largest share of spend in the localization budget and having significant impact on time to market. Our own metrics help us understand and refine our own processes, but what could we learn from sharing our quality data – securely and anonymously of course? Could our collective metrics be leveraged as valuable business intelligence? In June of this year TAUS launched the Quality Dashboard, an industry-shared platform that helps providers and buyers of translation as well as translators to measure and benchmark quality, productivity and efficiency. Through an open API users and translation technology providers can connect with the Dynamic Quality Framework (DQF) tools and track performance on the Quality Dashboard. This panel will discuss the value and power of these shared metrics and the impact of the Quality Dashboard.
The panelists are: Steve Richardson (LDS Church), Samuel Läubli (Autodesk), Hyunjoo Han (Autodesk)
The goal of this session is to share best practices and experiences across the panelists in terms of metrics-driven quality management. Discuss the industry’s need for tools and technology to aggregate quality data and provide a standardized approach to quality measurement.

Enterprise rails hosting 3 ways to scale - 2011-10 Avarteq
Your project is evolving just fine, you have a steady, non-linear growth and your roadmap is tightly packed. You feel hosting issues become more and more time consuming. So what to do? In this talk we will see that the answer to this question is not as easy as: "we'll jump into the cloud". More than this three different ways to solve this problem will be presented: high-end hardware, commodity hardware and a cloud deployment scenario. This gives you options to choose from. For each scenario an exemplary system design illustrating its hosting structure will be shown. We will workout individual pros and cons which need to be considered carefully in respect to your individual requirements. In order to support your decision making we will draft a rough decision tree to help you picking the best possible scenario for your situation. So at the end of the talk should be able to plan your next scale out step, easily.

This talk is about how to build a cluster to run a python or ruby (ruby on rails) application. We'll have a look at how the procedure of building such a cluster could look like and what you should take into consideration.
We'll look at issues like: datacenter, networking, load balancing, storage, database replication, ....
This talk will introduce into programming with evolutionary algorithms.
We'll build and/or discover a small framework for creating genetic
algorithms.
Genetic algorithms are good to solve certain kind of algorithmic
problems.
The talk will also give a rough picture about situations where
evolutionary programming might be the right solution.
Especially np hard problems like the traveling sales man problem (TSP) or
the rucksack problem are well known combinatoric problems (such as
distributing vservers across a number of vserver-hosts).

The case study discusses the potential of drone delivery and the challenges that need to be addressed before it becomes widespread.
Key takeaways:
Drone delivery is in its early stages: Amazon's trial in the UK demonstrates the potential for faster deliveries, but it's still limited by regulations and technology.
Regulations are a major hurdle: Safety concerns around drone collisions with airplanes and people have led to restrictions on flight height and location.
Other challenges exist: Who will use drone delivery the most? Is it cost-effective compared to traditional delivery trucks?
Discussion questions:
Managerial challenges: Integrating drones requires planning for new infrastructure, training staff, and navigating regulations. There are also marketing and recruitment considerations specific to this technology.
External forces vary by country: Regulations, consumer acceptance, and infrastructure all differ between countries.
Demographics matter: Younger generations might be more receptive to drone delivery, while older populations might have concerns.
Stakeholders for Amazon: Customers, regulators, aviation authorities, and competitors are all stakeholders. Regulators likely hold the greatest influence as they determine the feasibility of drone delivery.
Comparing Stability and Sustainability in Agile SystemsRob Healy
Copy of the presentation given at XP2024 based on a research paper.
In this paper we explain wat overwork is and the physical and mental health risks associated with it.
We then explore how overwork relates to system stability and inventory.
Finally there is a call to action for Team Leads / Scrum Masters / Managers to measure and monitor excess work for individual teams.
