The document discusses lean product management and user-centered app design. It covers topics like doing just enough to provide early value to users, eliminating waste, engaging workforces with few meetings and continuous delivery, and learning just enough, designing just enough, and delivering just enough. The secrets to being a modern software organization are said to be speed to market, customer focus, and engaged workforce. Critical components of a successful product are described as being desirable, viable, and feasible.
Agile development works well in small teams. But we encounter problems when Scrum is applied to other teams and the rest of the organisation. Large Scale Scrum (LeSS) can help. This slide deck explains why.
Managers encounter continued pressure to deliver more software in less time and they tend to introduce many different KPIs to measure success. But why do they introduce KPIs in the first place? Which are the good KPIs? Which ones are not useful? And which ones are the harmful ones? This white paper presents some of the most common KPIs and the expected outcomes that you could find using them. Agile Vs. Waterfall
This OKR playbook is the result of several years of OKR coaching. We offer this support to define, structure and communicate your OKR program within your organization. It helps you think through all aspects of setting up OKRs before deployment.
We use it in our coaching as a support to define the OKR program with executives; as well as a communication support for the launch of the OKR program with the teams; finally as a reference manual for the whole organization.
Why transform to Agile? What are the impediments to Agile Transformation? How to plan the Agile transformation? How to accelerate and sustain the Agile Transformation.
Lean IT is a management philosophy based on the Toyota Production System (TPS). With Lean IT, you will be able to enhance value for your customers by improving service delivery and eliminating waste. Simply put, by becoming a Lean organization, you will be able to increase productivity and create greater customer value with less resources.
This training presentation is especially tailored for the IT services industry. By teaching this presentation to IT service providers and employees, they will have a better understanding of the Lean principles and approach to eliminating waste, and will be more forthcoming to lead and participate in the Lean implementation process.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
1. Understand the principles and key concepts of Lean IT
2. Acquire knowledge on the key Lean methods and tools and their applications to eliminate waste and create increased value for customers
3. Identify ways to develop "Kaizen eyes" to look for improvement opportunities

This is the graphics from my famous Agile in a Nutshell poster that has been downloaded over 18.000 times since October 2016. It covers both briefly the background to why we work Agile, some history and problems as well as values and principles. It also covers the difference between waterfall development and Agile in two aspects and the most common Agile practice, basic Scrum. Also I added some Lean practices to the mix to add a more advanced level to it.

Enterprise agile transformation is a complex journey. It involves cultural change, org restructuring, reinventing processes and tools, and a visionary who can lead the change.
"Dealing with multiple teams in a product development organization is always a challenge!
One of the most impressive examples we’ve seen so far is Spotify, which has kept an agile mindset despite having scaled to over 30 teams across 3 cities."
The Paper of Scaling Agile @ Spotify (2014)
Spotify Engineering culture is a trending topic in companies scaling and transforming to Agile, We will discuss the details of this model and why it's so popular.
Normally people talk about organization structure only and leave tons of open questions without answers, We will try in this webinar to cover as much as possible of these questions like how they do promotions, learning and development and more besides the organization structure and scaling agile.

Ever wonder why Agile teams swear by relative estimation? My teams improved sprint planning efforts by a factor or 3, once we started using relative estimation.
Without understanding Agile relative estimation, teams tend to fall back to using time-based methods. This often leads them to spend way too much time on obsolete estimates that will be made even more complex with all the unknowns and constant emergent requirements of an Agile world!
“It's better to be roughly right, than precisely wrong!”
~ John Maynard Keyenes
The Solution is simple: understand that relative estimation is only a rough order of magnitude estimate to quickly organize the product backlog. This empowers your product owners (PO) to quickly make value based trade-offs on backlog items and decide on what stories the team should work next. This gives the business the highest bang for their buck!
PROBLEMS WITH TIME-BASED ESTIMATES
-Teams spend too much time trying to get it right
-Lack of confidence/experience can lead to people being either optimistic or pessimistic
-Timeline you are estimating may be too far in the future
-Due to long timeline, there are too many risks, unknowns, changes or dependencies!
WHY USE RELATIVE ESTIMATION?
-Allows a quick comparison of stories in the backlog
-Allows you to select a predictable volume of work to do in a sprint
-Uses a simple arbitrary scale
-Allows PO to make trade-offs and take on the most valuable stories next
ESTIMATION TIPS
-Relative points or equivalent Tshirt sizes are used to estimate stories, leveraging the Fibonacci sequence modified for Agile.
-The team estimates the story, not management nor the customer.
-Story estimates account for three things: effort, complexity, and unknowns. Don’t short sell yourself by estimating effort alone, that’s where waterfall projects face issues.
-Remember to estimate all Stories, user stories or technical stories. Even estimate research or discovery spikes.
-Refine your backlog as a team on a continuous basis, to get your stories to meet the Definition of Ready.
-Only pull into your sprint, stories that are refined and estimated.
-Break down stories that are large, into smaller slivers of value to optimize your flow.
-Don’t sweat it if you get it wrong, teams often do early on but improve over time.
This guide summaries a successful Agile transformation in Telco with a related case study.
Do not take the described steps of this guide as the only way to be successful, there can be many other alternatives for sure. However, this guide explains a way thats experienced to be successful in many companies and under different circumstances.

Globus Compute wth IRI Workflows - GlobusWorld 2024Globus
As part of the DOE Integrated Research Infrastructure (IRI) program, NERSC at Lawrence Berkeley National Lab and ALCF at Argonne National Lab are working closely with General Atomics on accelerating the computing requirements of the DIII-D experiment. As part of the work the team is investigating ways to speedup the time to solution for many different parts of the DIII-D workflow including how they run jobs on HPC systems. One of these routes is looking at Globus Compute as a way to replace the current method for managing tasks and we describe a brief proof of concept showing how Globus Compute could help to schedule jobs and be a tool to connect compute at different facilities.
Innovating Inference - Remote Triggering of Large Language Models on HPC Clus...Globus
Large Language Models (LLMs) are currently the center of attention in the tech world, particularly for their potential to advance research. In this presentation, we'll explore a straightforward and effective method for quickly initiating inference runs on supercomputers using the vLLM tool with Globus Compute, specifically on the Polaris system at ALCF. We'll begin by briefly discussing the popularity and applications of LLMs in various fields. Following this, we will introduce the vLLM tool, and explain how it integrates with Globus Compute to efficiently manage LLM operations on Polaris. Attendees will learn the practical aspects of setting up and remotely triggering LLMs from local machines, focusing on ease of use and efficiency. This talk is ideal for researchers and practitioners looking to leverage the power of LLMs in their work, offering a clear guide to harnessing supercomputing resources for quick and effective LLM inference.
How to Position Your Globus Data Portal for Success Ten Good PracticesGlobus
Science gateways allow science and engineering communities to access shared data, software, computing services, and instruments. Science gateways have gained a lot of traction in the last twenty years, as evidenced by projects such as the Science Gateways Community Institute (SGCI) and the Center of Excellence on Science Gateways (SGX3) in the US, The Australian Research Data Commons (ARDC) and its platforms in Australia, and the projects around Virtual Research Environments in Europe. A few mature frameworks have evolved with their different strengths and foci and have been taken up by a larger community such as the Globus Data Portal, Hubzero, Tapis, and Galaxy. However, even when gateways are built on successful frameworks, they continue to face the challenges of ongoing maintenance costs and how to meet the ever-expanding needs of the community they serve with enhanced features. It is not uncommon that gateways with compelling use cases are nonetheless unable to get past the prototype phase and become a full production service, or if they do, they don't survive more than a couple of years. While there is no guaranteed pathway to success, it seems likely that for any gateway there is a need for a strong community and/or solid funding streams to create and sustain its success. With over twenty years of examples to draw from, this presentation goes into detail for ten factors common to successful and enduring gateways that effectively serve as best practices for any new or developing gateway.

First Steps with Globus Compute Multi-User EndpointsGlobus
In this presentation we will share our experiences around getting started with the Globus Compute multi-user endpoint. Working with the Pharmacology group at the University of Auckland, we have previously written an application using Globus Compute that can offload computationally expensive steps in the researcher's workflows, which they wish to manage from their familiar Windows environments, onto the NeSI (New Zealand eScience Infrastructure) cluster. Some of the challenges we have encountered were that each researcher had to set up and manage their own single-user globus compute endpoint and that the workloads had varying resource requirements (CPUs, memory and wall time) between different runs. We hope that the multi-user endpoint will help to address these challenges and share an update on our progress here.

Enhancing Research Orchestration Capabilities at ORNL.pdfGlobus
Cross-facility research orchestration comes with ever-changing constraints regarding the availability and suitability of various compute and data resources. In short, a flexible data and processing fabric is needed to enable the dynamic redirection of data and compute tasks throughout the lifecycle of an experiment. In this talk, we illustrate how we easily leveraged Globus services to instrument the ACE research testbed at the Oak Ridge Leadership Computing Facility with flexible data and task orchestration capabilities.
In software engineering, the right architecture is essential for robust, scalable platforms. Wix has undergone a pivotal shift from event sourcing to a CRUD-based model for its microservices. This talk will chart the course of this pivotal journey.
Event sourcing, which records state changes as immutable events, provided robust auditing and "time travel" debugging for Wix Stores' microservices. Despite its benefits, the complexity it introduced in state management slowed development. Wix responded by adopting a simpler, unified CRUD model. This talk will explore the challenges of event sourcing and the advantages of Wix's new "CRUD on steroids" approach, which streamlines API integration and domain event management while preserving data integrity and system resilience.
Participants will gain valuable insights into Wix's strategies for ensuring atomicity in database updates and event production, as well as caching, materialization, and performance optimization techniques within a distributed system.
Join us to discover how Wix has mastered the art of balancing simplicity and extensibility, and learn how the re-adoption of the modest CRUD has turbocharged their development velocity, resilience, and scalability in a high-growth environment.
Climate Science Flows: Enabling Petabyte-Scale Climate Analysis with the Eart...Globus
The Earth System Grid Federation (ESGF) is a global network of data servers that archives and distributes the planet’s largest collection of Earth system model output for thousands of climate and environmental scientists worldwide. Many of these petabyte-scale data archives are located in proximity to large high-performance computing (HPC) or cloud computing resources, but the primary workflow for data users consists of transferring data, and applying computations on a different system. As a part of the ESGF 2.0 US project (funded by the United States Department of Energy Office of Science), we developed pre-defined data workflows, which can be run on-demand, capable of applying many data reduction and data analysis to the large ESGF data archives, transferring only the resultant analysis (ex. visualizations, smaller data files). In this talk, we will showcase a few of these workflows, highlighting how Globus Flows can be used for petabyte-scale climate analysis.
