This document discusses Agile principles and their business benefits. It provides an overview of Edward Deming's work developing quality management theories in Japan after WWII. Deming emphasized continuous improvement, employee empowerment, and a focus on quality and customer satisfaction. His ideas helped transform Japan's economy. The document contrasts the American and Japanese business models, with Americans focusing more on efficiency and outputs, while Japanese companies emphasized quality and long-term relationships. Agile principles align with Deming and the Japanese philosophy of valuing people, collaboration, and adapting to change.

Org Topologies at Scrum Day Europe 2022, AmsterdamAlexey Krivitsky
Organizational Topologies: your roadmap towards an innovative, resilient and adaptive product development organization.
Many organizations struggle to adopt "agile" in a way that delivers on its promise to make the company fast, flexible and efficient.
Global consultancy firms have great pitches on how to adopt different so-called “Agile frameworks”. The marketing is great, but are the results too? We see how our clients get stuck in adopting a framework - forming “agile teams”, appointing “product owners” and then clustering all this into “tribes”. Thus creating robust structures that make further organizational improvements and adaptability difficult, slow, and expensive.
This talk offers ideas how to go beyond these limiting ideas and explores a map of organizational transformation based on orgtopologies.com.

How to grow learning multi-site agile organizationsAlexey Krivitsky
What is making organizations so complex and slow? Why an "enterprise" is an equivalent to "inefficient"? How to de-scale organizations? There is no easy answers. But understanding the internal system dynamics is the key skill here.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.
Generating a custom Ruby SDK for your web service or Rails API using Smithyg2nightmarescribd
Have you ever wanted a Ruby client API to communicate with your web service? Smithy is a protocol-agnostic language for defining services and SDKs. Smithy Ruby is an implementation of Smithy that generates a Ruby SDK using a Smithy model. In this talk, we will explore Smithy and Smithy Ruby to learn how to generate custom feature-rich SDKs that can communicate with any web service, such as a Rails JSON API.
The Art of the Pitch: WordPress Relationships and SalesLaura Byrne

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

2. Why Agile?
• Сложность проектов
• Люди
• Уменьшить риски
- Если облажаться, то сделать это
раньше (т.е. дешевле)
• Улучшить контроль над ходом процесса
• Выпускать раньше и чаще
3. Agile Manifesto
www.agilemanifesto.org
• Individuals and interactions over processes and tools
• Working software over comprehensive documentation
• Customer collaboration over contract negotiation
• Responding to change over following a plan
That is, while there is value in the items on the right, we value the items on the
left more.

6. Эдвардс Деминг
• Американский учёный-статистик
• Автор “японского экономического чуда” (1950 г.)

‣ Потребителей (клиентов, покупателей)
‣ Сотрудников
‣ Собственников
‣ Поставщиков
‣ Общества в целом
7. “Японское экономическое чудо”
• Словосочетание “японский примус” до войны
было сродни ругательству
• “Чудо” началось в оккупированной Японии в
1950г. после лекции Э.Деминга для руководителей
200 японских корпораций
• Через 10 лет японские автомобили начали
завоёвывать американский рынок
• Сейчас по валовому национальному продукту
Япония стоит на 2м месте после США.
8. Идеи Э.Деминга
• Ориентация на качество
