Software companies, as well as development teams in IT departments within companies of other industries have, for years, struggled to find better tools, methodologies and training process for software development. Yet, most medium and small organizations, as well as some large ones, still struggle with the processes that define WHAT the software to be developed should be and how it will evolve over time. Proper processes are not established and most times organizations cope with conflicting roles and stressing day-to-day decisions. Product management for software requires a company-wide understanding of goals, opportunities and required discipline related to product management and is fundamental to maximize all development and ongoing maintenance efforts. This session will address why product management is crucial to maximize revenues and reduce costs in the short, medium and long terms; what the role of a product manager is; how to unfold company strategies into product strategies; what the several business aspects to be considered at product planning are; how to define productization artifacts; and how to orchestrate product releases across a software company to improve corporate communication and overall financial results.
Main Message:
Software organizations have improved HOW they develop and support their products – they have also to improve how to, on an ongoing basis, optimize WHAT those products should be.

Concept Development is the starting point for a business idea. It includes the type of service or product, the target customer demographic, and describes what is unique about it that will give this idea a competitive advantage. The process of Concept Development results in a portfolio of business concepts that can be prioritized and then used to develop a business plan.
Concept Development is often a component of the fuzzy front end of the innovation process. It is the “getting started” period of new product development where a team or startup formulates a concept of the product to be developed and decides whether or not to invest resources in the further development of the idea. Concept Development starts with the brainstorming of new opportunities and continues with the formation of an idea and narrowing down a more precise concept. The Concept Development phase is usually where requirements are identified involving time, money, and the product’s nature, thereby setting the direction for the entire project and final end product.
Use the template below to create your own Concept Development Template.
I've used this slide in many product management talks to illustrate the cross-functional and multi-lingual challenge of product management: provide related but distinct inputs to three key stakeholders.
The case study describes a best practices approach to the development of a whole product roadmap for laboratory information management system (LIMS) software to support next-generation sequencing (NGS) for translational and clinical genomic research.
"Where Does (Should) Strategy Live in Your Company?" from SDForum Marketing SIG, 4/12/10. Tackles key cross-functional inputs for a strategy, who needs to participate, and where (in a start-up or small company) this should be located/managed from. Highlights product management as typically missing in small Silicon Valley companies.
Slides Ladislav Bartos recently used in his discussion w/ mentees of The Product Mentor.
Synopsis: The last 10 years Product management went through some significant changes. The question is what can we expect to change the next 10-20 years and how to prepare for these changes?

Cassandra is a better alternative to RDBMS for a scalable solution which requires a distributed DB but it is more popular in clustered solutions which are targeted for a single installation. Key reason is maintainability & life-cycle management.
Ericsson has re-engineered its voucher management solution for prepaid billing by replacing RDBMS with Cassandra. It facilitates clusters with large set of nodes which can easily scale up & scale down, so that one doesn't have to deal with multiple clusters. However, skills for its administration are sparse, unlke RDBMS. Activities like nodetool repair, compaction & scale up/down become challenging. Moreover, frequency of new Cassandra releases is high and rolling them out to several deployments is challenging
Key technical challenges were consistency of denormalized data, performance of full-table scan & porting the product from Thrift to CQL. Challenges with large scale global deployments are with anti-entropy & size-tiered compaction.

Design for x : Design for Manufacturing,Design for Assembly Naseel Ibnu Azeez
Concurrent engineering is a contemporary approach to DFSS. DFX techniques are part of detail design and are ideal approaches to improve life-cycle cost, quality, increased design flexibility, and increased efficiency and productivity using the concurrent design concepts (Maskell 1991). Benefits are usually pinned as competitiveness measures, improved decision-making, and enhanced operational efficiency. The letter “X” in DFX is made up of two parts: life-cycle processes x and performance measure

Building Enterprise Product - For Moving Targets of Customer Needs and OutcomesMurali Erraguntala
Building new product is an exciting phase in the career of every Product Manager and each Product Manager would yearn for an opportunity to conceptualize, build and launch new products. The primary goal of every product manager is to ensure the commercial success of the new product. Yet, only 50% of new products succeed [1]. New product development is definitely a challenge and Product Manager falters somewhere during the course of building a new product. In order to provide some guidance to build new products, I decided to drop my experiences of building a new product. Please note that some of the information listed as part of this guide may be biased because of my experiences of building and sustaining B2B HW product of an existing product line.
Through elaborating my experiences of building the new product in this eBook I have structured actionable plans for successfully building the new product that is:
• Built on a foundation of strong product vision formulated after careful consideration of customer analysis, market analysis, industry trends, technology trends etc.
• Built in alignment with customer real needs and as desired by them.
• Built not just for needs of today but for needs of tomorrow.
• Built with all essential attributes that drive customer preferences to buy the new product.
The primary reason for drafting the guide is to streamline my experiences of building a new product and share actionable points as part of the guide. I have learned about Product Management by reading books, blogs, articles etc and primarily through my role as a Product Manager. The guide is a way of giving back to my fraternity and sharing my experiences. I would be deeply humbled if someone finds the guide helpful and I am open to comments to make it better. The information shared in this guide is already available in my blog @ www.ProductGuy.in. I appreciate if you could visit my blog and drop your thoughts/comments.
March's Slideshare offering is all about visual design. Learn why simplicity takes work, why it's best to pair one idea with one slide, why unity matters, why pictures are superior, how losing signal can lose your audience, and a simple method for eliminating slide fluff
Designers can’t help themselves. We are, by nature, perfectionists. We create, then throw away. We create again, tweak continuously, and fine-tune a design indefinitely. Why can we not stop ourselves? Time passes us by, missing deadlines. In turn, developers anxiously wait for us to finish, so that they can work off of something that has been solidified. During this session, you will learn strategies that will push your design to that "good enough" stage, so you will know “when to say when” and move from designing interfaces to developing them.

Product Management: Optimizing the What to DevelopTechWell
Most organizations struggle with the processes that define what software they should develop, when to do it, and how it will evolve over time—all parts of the product management role and activities. Because repeatable processes have not been established and organizations cope with conflicting priorities, teams stress needlessly over day-to-day decisions. Product management requires a fundamental company-wide understanding of its goals and opportunities coupled with the discipline to optimize development and maintenance efforts. Ernani Ferrari addresses why product management for software is crucial to maximize revenue and reduce costs in the short and long terms, explains the product manager’s role and activities, and examines how to translate company strategies into product strategies. Ernani also explores what business aspects you should consider during product planning, discusses the product artifacts you need, and outlines orchestrating product releases to improve corporate communication and overall financial results.
Introducing self-scanners to CRAI chain in Milan (case work)Dasha Gaioshko
The aim of this project is to implement self-scanner technology, that is gaining a lot of appreciation by customers worldwide, in CRAI supermarkets in Italy.
Product Marketing is frequently mentioned but not well understood. From Apple where PMMs are basically GMs to Google where they play a supporting role, everyone has a different definition. Having built this function at Skype and Evernote, here's how we approached it.
Why should you attend:
Understand Verification and Validation, differences and how they work together
Develop a "Working Definition" of V&V, Qualification, and related terms
Discuss recent regulatory expectations
Software Verification & Validation requirements of the FDA and ISO.
The latest FDA Software Guidance & Regulations, including Part 11 -impact on V&V strategies
Device and Manufacturing software requirements for V & V
How to determine & demonstrate an appropriate V & V strategy
How to determine & handle software for different Levels of Concern
What V&V is required for 3rd Party software-custom and Off-the-shelf
Impact of FDA, Mobile APPS, Cyber Security, and software standards such as IEC 62304
What to look for during software vendor audits.
V & V documentation and level of detail required for device submissions.
How to document a "risk-based" rationale, and use it in a resource-constrained environment
Determine key "milestones" and "tasks" in a project as well as discussing audience related projects for discussion points

Hand Rolled Applicative User ValidationCode KataPhilip Schwarz
Could you use a simple piece of Scala validation code (granted, a very simplistic one too!) that you can rewrite, now and again, to refresh your basic understanding of Applicative operators <*>, <*, *>?
The goal is not to write perfect code showcasing validation, but rather, to provide a small, rough-and ready exercise to reinforce your muscle-memory.
Despite its grandiose-sounding title, this deck consists of just three slides showing the Scala 3 code to be rewritten whenever the details of the operators begin to fade away.
The code is my rough and ready translation of a Haskell user-validation program found in a book called Finding Success (and Failure) in Haskell - Fall in love with applicative functors.
Graspan: A Big Data System for Big Code AnalysisAftab Hussain
We built a disk-based parallel graph system, Graspan, that uses a novel edge-pair centric computation model to compute dynamic transitive closures on very large program graphs.
We implement context-sensitive pointer/alias and dataflow analyses on Graspan. An evaluation of these analyses on large codebases such as Linux shows that their Graspan implementations scale to millions of lines of code and are much simpler than their original implementations.
These analyses were used to augment the existing checkers; these augmented checkers found 132 new NULL pointer bugs and 1308 unnecessary NULL tests in Linux 4.4.0-rc5, PostgreSQL 8.3.9, and Apache httpd 2.2.18.

and improves overall product quality
