In general the goal of networking is to create new opportunities. These may be business opportunities, partnership opportunities or job opportunities. But what really creates new opportunities is our reputation.
Having a good reputation means that:
People will remember you. They will remember you for many years since they had the last interaction with you.
People will recommend you. They will introduce you to their own contacts whenever they think you may contribute.
People will constantly offer you new opportunities. They will invite you when they have a job opening, or when they need a partner or an adviser.

Software Architecture for Agile DevelopmentHayim Makabee
Slides of a workshop given at Herzliya on June/2017, organized by ILTAM and IASA Israel. This workshop was dedicated to the topic of Software Architecture in the context of Agile Development. We answered the question: “How much Design Up Front should be done in an Agile project?” Hayim presented his approach of Adaptable Design Up Front (ADUF), describing its rationale, applications in practice and comparison to other approaches such as Emergent Design. He explained why adaptability is essential for the development of complex software systems using Agile methods. The concepts were illustrated through practical software architecture approaches such as micro-services and examples of real software systems that were developed in the past. The workshop also included an exercise on the definition and evolution of the design of an interesting system.
Adaptable Designs for Agile Software DevelopmentHayim Makabee
Abstract: This talk introduces the concept of Adaptable Software Design, and explains why adaptability is essential for the development of complex software systems using Agile methods. The concepts are illustrated through practical software architecture approaches such as micro-services.
The concept of Antifragility was introduced by Nassim Taleb to describe systems that benefit from impacts and volatility.
In this talk we will discuss how this concept may be applied in the field of Software Design with the goal of developing Change-Resilient Systems.
In particular we will address two patterns which frequently appear in Antifragile systems:
1) The Barbell Strategy and the importance of the separation between high-level abstract elements and concrete implementation details.
2) The Componentization Strategy and its applications in SOA, Microservices and Software Product Lines.
To document or not to document? An exploratory study on developers' motivatio...Hayim Makabee
Abstract: Technical debt represents the situation in a project where developers accept compromises in one dimension of a system in order to meet urgent demands in other dimensions. These compromises incur a “debt”, on which “interest” has to be paid to maintain the long-term health of the project. One of the elements of technical debt is documentation debt due to under-documentation of the evolving system. In this exploratory study, our goal is to examine the different aspects of developers' motivation to document code. Specifically, we aim to identify the motivating and hindering aspects of documentation as perceived by the developers. The motivating aspects of code documenting we find include improving code comprehensibility, order, and quality. The hindering aspects include developers’ perception of documenting as a tedious, difficult, and time consuming task that interrupts the coding process. These findings may serve as a basis for developing guidelines toward improving documentation practices and encouraging developers to document their code thus reducing documentation debt.

The SOLID Principles Illustrated by Design PatternsHayim Makabee
The goal of the SOLID design principles is to improve the Separation of Concerns, through weaker Coupling and stronger Cohesion. The main consequence should be software systems that are easier to maintain and to extend. However the definition of the SOLID principles is quite abstract, and some developers find it difficult to apply them in practice. In my talk I will show how well-known Design Patterns illustrate the application of the SOLID principles, and also show examples of how to follow these principles to Refactor and improve existing designs.

The quality of software systems may be expressed as a collection of Software Quality Attributes. When the system requirements are defined, it is essential also to define what is expected regarding these quality attributes, since these expectations will guide the planning of the system architecture and design.
Software quality attributes may be classified into two main categories: static and dynamic. Static quality attributes are the ones that reflect the system’s structure and organization. Examples of static attributes are coupling, cohesion, complexity, maintainability and extensibility. Dynamic attributes are the ones that reflect the behavior of the system during its execution. Examples of dynamic attributes are memory usage, latency, throughput, scalability, robustness and fault-tolerance.
Following the definitions of expectations regarding the quality attributes, it is essential to devise ways to measure them and verify that the implemented system satisfies the requirements. Some static attributes may be measured through static code analysis tools, while others require effective design and code reviews. The measuring and verification of dynamic attributes requires the usage of special non-functional testing tools such as profilers and simulators.
In this talk I will discuss the main Software Quality attributes, both static and dynamic, examples of requirements, and practical guidelines on how to measure and verify these attributes.
Title: The Role of the Software Architect
Speaker: Hayim Makabee, co-founder of the Israeli Chapter of the International Association of Software Architects (IASA)
Abstract:
In this talk Hayim will present the practical aspects of the role of the Software Architect, including:
- The four areas of expertise: Design, Domain, Technology and Methodology.
- The cooperation with stakeholders: Developers, Team Leaders, Project Managers, QA and Technical Writers.
Understanding the expected areas of expertise is essential for the architect to develop his/her professional skills.
Understanding how to cooperate with the diverse stakeholders is essential to improve the architect's impact and effectiveness.
Reducing Technical Debt: Using Persuasive Technology for Encouraging Software...Hayim Makabee
Technical debt is a metaphor for the gap between the current state of a software system and its hypothesized ‘ideal’ state. One of the significant and under-investigated elements of technical debt is documentation debt, which
may occur when code is created without supporting internal documentation, such as code comments. Studies have shown that outdated or lacking documentation is a considerable contributor to increased costs of software
systems maintenance. The importance of comments is often overlooked by software developers, resulting in a notably slower growth rate of comments compared to the growth rate of code in software projects. This research aims to explore and better understand developers’ reluctance to document code, and accordingly to propose efficient ways of using persuasive technology to
encourage programmers to document their code. The results may assist software practitioners and project managers to control and reduce documentation debt.

In the context of Iterative Software Development, we ask the question: How much design should be done "up front"?
We propose the approach of Adaptable Design Up Front, which focuses on capturing the essential aspects of the system and plans for extensibility and adaptability.

2. Networking is
Overrated
• It is very easy to meet new people,
exchange business cards and create
a connection.
• However, it is much more difficult to
keep in touch with all these people
over time.
• The natural tendency is to simply
stop having any kind of interaction
with our new contacts until we
completely forget about each other.
3. The Business Cards Collection
Do you have a business cards collection? Please select one of them randomly
and answer these questions:
1. Do you remember where did you meet this person? Do you remember in
which circumstances did you meet?
2. Did someone introduce you to this person? Do you remember who
introduced you?
3. Do you remember the face of this person? Would you be able to recognize
him/her in the street?
4. Did you ever communicate with this person? Do you remember when was
your last interaction?
5. If you would see the name of this person somewhere else, would you
remember that you once met and exchanged business cards?
4. Benefits of a Good
Reputation
Having a good reputation means that:
• People will remember us. They will
remember us for many years since we
had our last interaction.
• People will recommend us. They will
introduce us to their own contacts
whenever they think we may contribute.
• People will constantly offer us new
opportunities. They will invite us when
they have a job opening, or when they
need a partner or an adviser.
5. Reputation =
Right Place + Right Time
• If you have a good
reputation your
name will be
present even if you
are not physically
present.
• People will mention
you in the right
context, at the right
places and at the
right times.
6. Networking vs Reputation
• Networking = You want to meet
people that may help you.
• Reputation = You create value for
people you may never meet.
8. Be a Connector
• Connectors are the people in a community
who know large numbers of people and
who are in the habit of making
introductions.
• They know people across an array of social,
cultural, professional, and economic circles,
and make a habit of introducing people
who work or live in different circles.
• Connectors are “a handful of people with a
truly extraordinary knack [... for] making
friends and acquaintances”.
10. You are already a
connector!
You are already being a connector
every time you:
• Make an introduction between
two friends.
• Send the CV of a friend to
another friend who works for a
company that has an open
position.
12. Curate Content
“Content curation is the process of gathering information relevant to a
particular topic or area of interest, usually with the intention of adding
value through selection and organization”.

16. Create Content
• “Content creation is the process of
generating topic ideas that appeal to
your followers, creating written or
visual content around those ideas,
and making that information
accessible to your audience as a blog,
video, infographic, or other format.”
• “Create something unique. Don’t
simply regurgitate the information
that’s already out there. Infuse a
unique style or cite new research to
emphasize your points.”
18. You are already creating content!
You are already creating content
every time you:

34. Employability
• Employability = The ability to find a new job.
• Successful Career Path = A career path in which your Employability is
always increasing.
• Most professionals are afraid that as they get older it may become
difficult for them to find a new job.
• With proper planning and investment, many professionals can
actually increase their Employability as they get older.
35. 1st Stage: You actively look for a new job
When you are a fresh graduate or when you do not have much experience, you must
actively look for a new job.
The less experience you have, the less differences when compared to other candidates.
Your employability at this stage depends mostly on your performance at job interviews.
To be invited to job interviews, you must have a good CV.
At this stage you don’t even have many friends working for other companies who may
recommend you.
36. 2nd Stage: You
are invited by
head-hunters
You will be approached by head-hunters if
you have special experience and skills which
are highly in demand and hard to find.
Head-hunters will not contact you if your
skills are not in demand, or if there are many
other professionals with similar experience.
In general, head-hunters will offer you jobs
which are better than your current one.

Keep a rich LinkedIn profile with
detailed and relevant information so
that head-hunters will find you.
Acquire
Acquire experience and skills in fields
which are highly in demand and that
do not have enough supply.
Work
Work for companies which have a
reputation of hiring only highly-
qualified professionals.
38. 3rd Stage: You are invited to join a company
At this stage you are invited to join a company because of your unique
reputation, because you have proved achievements besides your
experience and skills.
You may be contacted by a friend or acquaintance who is a C-level
executive or a VP in another company. Or you may be invited to be a
co-founder in a seed-stage start-up.
In any case you will be offered a leadership position with greater
authority and responsibility than your current job.
39. Being invited
to join a
company
When you are approached by a head-hunter, they
want someone like you. The head-hunter will say:
“You have the exact profile we are looking for.”
In contrast, when you are invited to join a
company, they want you. The invitation will be:
“We want you to come work with us.”
40. How to move
from the 2nd
to the 3rd
stage:
• Build your reputation by making your
achievements visible. Become a recognized
authority in your field.
• Build your network by connecting to all the
people you have been in any kind of professional
relationship. This includes people you should
regularly meet in conferences and meet-ups.
• Achievements mean results. People must be
aware of your contribution to the companies
you’ve worked for. They must know that you had
a central role in the creation of new products
that were successful in the market and that
drove significant revenues to your company.
41. Opportunities
= Reputation X
Size(Network)
• The number of opportunities that appear to
you will depend on both your reputation and
the size of your network.
• Even if you have a very big network, most
people will not remember you if you don’t
make your achievements visible.
• On the other hand, it is not very useful to have
a very strong reputation in a small network.
• For example, you may be considered the
topmost expert inside your company, but this
would not help you get job offers from other
companies.
42. In Summary:
Successful
Career Path
Our goal should be to develop strategies to have a
Successful Career Path in which our Employability
is always increasing.
• In the 1st stage you need a good CV. The only
goal of the CV is to be invited for an interview
when you apply for a job.
• In the 2nd stage you need a good LinkedIn
profile. The goal of your profile is to make it easy
for head-hunters to find you and offer you a
relevant job.
• In the 3rd stage you need your name to be a
brand. You need to have an active presence both
virtually and in real-life events, so that people
will remember you.
