You are already spending time and money to handle the critical need to manage systems capacity, performance and planning. But, are you spending wisely? Are you getting the level of results from your investment that you really need? Can you prove it? Having underutilized or idle resources can be just as harmful to your business as not having enough processing capacity or network bandwidth. Failure to do effective Capacity Planning becomes clearly visible to your customers, especially your internal customers. The good news is that the return on investment of implementing capacity management and capacity planning is most definitely positive and provable, both in terms of tangible monetary value and in some less tangible but no-less-valuable benefits.

Agile Development – Why requirements matter by Fariz Saracevic

Agile ME

The clear benefits of agile development is a better collaboration, incremental delivery, early error detection and the elimination of unnecessary work—have made it the default approach for many teams. Some developers have questioned whether requirements fall into the category of unnecessary work, and can be cut down or even completely eliminated. Meanwhile, teams developing complex products, systems and regulated IT continue to have requirements-driven legacy processes. So how does requirements management fit in an agile world? This meetup will take a look at requirements management and how it can bring significant value to agile development in regulated IT and complex product development projects, and sets out the characteristics of an effective requirements management approach in an agile environment.

Appendix A Proof of effectiveness of some of the agile methods used to develop systems requirements In all software development methodologies, the process of collecting, understanding and managing all requirements for a system is a crucial process in software development. Similar to all this other methods, agile methods are not exceptional. Most agile method handle requirements in order to implement them as much accurately as possible to satisfy all the customer demands. This is usually achieved by maintaining a continuous interaction with the customers to address their needs according to priority and functionalities. In this appendix, we shall be focusing on continuous process of improving the development process. Some agile methods include the following 1. eXtreme Programming (XP) – it improves a software project in communication, simplicity, feedback and courage. 2. scrum- this is an agile, iterative and incremental method which takes care of all changes that may come across in the life-cycle of the project. Basically, it adds energy, focus and clarity to development teams. Its major aim is ot see the whole system being a successful product. 3. Dynamic system, development method (DSDM) 4. Adaptive software development (ASD)- this is a development process that is a product of rapid application development. It has four phases of communication and planning, analysis, testing & deployment and design and deployment. 5. the crystal family Due to availability of these various methods, the potential adopters may experience a challenge of determining what to apply on its own and therefore there was need to define a document containing all the necessary values and common qualities to be used across all agile methods. This document is the Agile Manifesto and focuses mainly on human interactivity and processes management. 1. Individual and interaction over various processes and tasks. Usually the agile process will focus more on people and their interactivity but not on the structural processes and tools. 2. Working software and documentation. Main objective of the developers is actually delivering a functional code which will always add value to our users. Well documented code is always self-documented. 3. Responding to change over planning. Here developers are required to respond very fast to the requirements variations. Time used in planning is minimal compared to what our users actually requires. 4. Customer collaboration over contracts. The mutual relationship of the developers and susers of our system is monitored and regulated through engaging the customer in the development process. The figure below shows the steps in agile methodologies which focus on an iteration and adaptable change. 5. Tools needed for requirement management in agile methods of system development. 1. The most popular tools in agile methods include paper, pencil a drawing pin board. If we consider eXtreme programming requirements are obtained from user stories which ar.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI support

Alan 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.
