This document discusses establishing efficient delivery rhythms in agile software development projects using Kanban. It notes that fixed delivery rhythms with timeboxing can cause inefficiencies. Kanban uncouples delivery from prioritization and development cycles. Delivery costs include coordination costs between teams and transaction costs of delivering software. The document recommends defining a delivery rhythm based on these costs and the business value. It suggests increasing the delivery rhythm and reducing coordination and transaction costs to improve delivery efficiency.
This document discusses managing requirements through the lifecycle of an agile project. It notes that while agile practices focus on short iterations and minimal upfront planning, enterprise projects still require requirements persistence for regulatory compliance, reuse, and institutional memory. The document advocates aligning requirements management tools with agile tools to capture stakeholder needs, maintain requirements traceability throughout iterations, and preserve requirements for auditing after a project's completion. This allows leveraging agile principles while addressing enterprise needs like compliance and long-term requirements maintenance.
Development is a critical component of the original implementation of E-Business Suite, and continues with ongoing Support.
-Development is the set of activities surrounding the definition, design, construction, testing and implementation of components of a software solution.
-For our discussion purposes, the software solution in question extends core functionality provided by Oracle EBS modules.
-Even a “vanilla” implementation - where customization is explicitly avoided - may entail a substantial automated data conversion effort, which requires a software solution.

It then outlines TempWorks' main software modules for enterprise staffing management, mobile onboarding, and client/candidate portals. Finally, it reviews TempWorks' standard implementation process and support service levels.
The document discusses classes of service in Kanban, which divide tasks into different aspects with simplified prioritization and parallel flows. It provides examples of established classes of service like bug, standard, chore, and fixed delivery date. One company uses "virtual" swim lanes to represent standard development, support/evaluation, and extremely important tasks. Bugs and extremely important tasks take precedence and aim for a one day cycle time. Evaluations produce standard feature tasks while chores are non-urgent support and improvement tasks. It concludes that tools are needed to measure cycle times per class of service.

This document discusses how adopting Agile practices can help IT projects fail early and with lower costs. It focuses on establishing clear requirements through iterative deliveries. Early demos give customers a chance to provide feedback. The document outlines processes for developing a product vision, roadmap, minimum viable product, and feature set. It emphasizes automating testing to reduce technical debt and costs of supporting the product. Engaging global teams can help establish failures early at lower costs through testing, defect fixing, and support activities.
Scrum is an agile framework that focuses on rapid delivery of working software in short cycles called sprints. It involves self-organizing cross-functional teams, prioritized backlogs and artifacts like product backlogs, sprint backlogs and increments. Key roles include the product owner who prioritizes features, the development team who work on delivering features and the scrum master who facilitates the process. Ceremonies like sprint planning, daily standups, sprint reviews and retrospectives help ensure transparency and process improvement.
The document discusses Agile software development methodology. It describes Agile as an iterative approach that builds software incrementally from the start instead of delivering it all at once near the end. The key difference between Agile and Waterfall is that Agile uses empirical process control and allows for scope and priority to be reset every 2-4 weeks to ensure alignment with evolving business needs. It also outlines various Agile concepts like product backlog, sprint planning, daily stand-ups and retrospectives.
This presentation describes the basics of Agile methodologies and how it is differed from Waterfall. Then continues with the most famous Agile approach: Scrum
This document provides an overview of agile methodology and scrum framework. It discusses the basic principles of agile, including continuous iteration, concurrent development and testing. It also outlines the roles in scrum like product owner, scrum master and scrum team. Examples of user stories, estimation and team formation are provided. The document concludes with success stories of companies like a credit rating company, Lego and Cisco that achieved benefits like reduced defects and overtime by adopting scrum.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
In the rapidly evolving landscape of technologies, XML continues to play a vital role in structuring, storing, and transporting data across diverse systems. The recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) present new methodologies for enhancing XML development workflows, introducing efficiency, automation, and intelligent capabilities. This presentation will outline the scope and perspective of utilizing AI in XML development. The potential benefits and the possible pitfalls will be highlighted, providing a balanced view of the subject.
We will explore the capabilities of AI in understanding XML markup languages and autonomously creating structured XML content. Additionally, we will examine the capacity of AI to enrich plain text with appropriate XML markup. Practical examples and methodological guidelines will be provided to elucidate how AI can be effectively prompted to interpret and generate accurate XML markup.
Further emphasis will be placed on the role of AI in developing XSLT, or schemas such as XSD and Schematron. We will address the techniques and strategies adopted to create prompts for generating code, explaining code, or refactoring the code, and the results achieved.
The discussion will extend to how AI can be used to transform XML content. In particular, the focus will be on the use of AI XPath extension functions in XSLT, Schematron, Schematron Quick Fixes, or for XML content refactoring.
The presentation aims to deliver a comprehensive overview of AI usage in XML development, providing attendees with the necessary knowledge to make informed decisions. Whether you’re at the early stages of adopting AI or considering integrating it in advanced XML development, this presentation will cover all levels of expertise.
By highlighting the potential advantages and challenges of integrating AI with XML development tools and languages, the presentation seeks to inspire thoughtful conversation around the future of XML development. We’ll not only delve into the technical aspects of AI-powered XML development but also discuss practical implications and possible future directions.

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.
Wearables to allow developers to track tasks – haptic feedback if they haven’t updated effort / tasks frequently enough
50” touch screens linked to tablets (gimmick)
Per developer vs their estimates, hourly
Minimise agreed contingency time, recouping it frequently
All about blame!
Can’t possibly be transparent with clients
All data can feed straight into performance appraisals
