Agile Distributed Software Development in Nine Central European Teams: Challe...ijcsit
Although initially designed for co-located teams, agile methodologies promise mitigation to the challenges present in distributed software development with their demand for frequent communication. We examine the application of agile practices in software engineering teams with low geographical distribution in Austria and Germany. To gather insights on challenges and benefits faced by distributed teams we conduct interviews with eleven representatives and analyse the interview transcripts using the inductive category formation method. As a result, we identify four major challenges, such as technical obstructions or the impediments different language abilities have on communication, and four benefits, regarding collaboration and information radiation, that agile methods yield in distributed teams. Based on our analysis of challenges and benefits, we deduct seven recommendations to improve collaboration, overcome distance and avoid pitfalls. Key recommendations for teams with low geographical distance include that teams should get together at certain points to build relationships and trust and share information face-toface.

This document discusses computer-mediated communication (CMC) and its effectiveness in globally distributed projects. It begins by defining virtual teams and explaining why CMC is needed for communication between geographically dispersed teams. It then discusses different forms of CMC and factors that influence its effectiveness, such as building trust, cohesion, and task commitment. While face-to-face interaction may be better for trust, CMC can still be effective if tools like video conferencing are used. The document concludes that CMC is an important aspect of global software development that allows for effective long-distance communication, as long as teams are committed and have the proper resources.
This document proposes a conceptual framework for the early design of "infosuasive" web applications, which aim to both inform and persuade users. The framework is intended to help integrate the perspectives of various stakeholders in the design process. It takes a value-driven approach, focusing on how design elements can fulfill communication goals and support desired values for target users. The framework places this analysis in the context of requirements engineering, relating it to analyzing business values, user needs, and technical factors. It then discusses how communication values and goals impact design dimensions like content, information architecture, interaction, operations, and layout.
Program management involves managing related projects to achieve strategic goals, while project management techniques are used to manage scope, quality, time, cost, risk, and other elements through a project's lifecycle. Effective communication is critical, as 56% of $135 million in risk for every $1 billion spent on projects is due to ineffective communication. Developing communication strategies, managing information flow, and creating awareness are important for maintaining stakeholder expectations and ensuring project success and productivity through team collaboration.
This document discusses the maturity levels of human-computer interaction (HCI). It begins by providing background on HCI and how the paradigm had not changed much in the early 2000s. It then discusses three perspectives for measuring HCI maturity: technology-based, model-based, and process-based. Currently, HCI is at level 1 focusing on basic usability and level 2 focusing on collaborative interactions. The document envisions HCI reaching level 3, which will involve individualized and holistic interaction design in future computer environments that are ambitious, invisible, inherent, real, virtual, active, integrated, interconnected and mobile. It will require changes in engineering, arranging the human interface, and using information-interaction counselors.

ABSTRACT
Project management methods and tools are increasingly relevant
as today’s globalized organizations accomplish more of their
goals using cross-functional, and often cross-cultural,
geographically dispersed, project teams. The increased diversity
of skills, knowledge, cultures, and perspectives of these project
teams can potentially have both positive and negative influences
on group processes and outcomes. The question that this
research-in-progress intends to address is: To what extent can and
do project management methods and tools benefit diverse virtual
teams while mitigating its challenges? In order to begin to answer
this question, this paper presents relevant background, a research
model, a methodology (currently in progress), and potential
contributions. The initial methodology involves a study of IT
project teams working on a common database design project
whose members are using electronic tools to communicate,
collaborate, and coordinate. The results of the study should
provide useful information to practitioners and researchers
regarding project management and virtual teams.

1. INTRODUCTION
Much of the work done in today’s increasingly geographically
distributed organizations is accomplished by work groups, often
formalized as project teams. In order to achieve the assigned tasks
and goals, a cross-section of skills, knowledge, and perspectives is
often required. Thus, team members may be selected from
multiple functional areas, from different locations, and often from
diverse demographic and cultural backgrounds. Project teams are
often managed using formal project management methodologies,
such as those derived from the Project Management Body of
Knowledge (PMBOK) [1]. Such methods have evolved due to the
need to monitor and control complex projects, and to maintain
budgets and schedules while ensuring quality, which have all
grown in importance as critical success factors in the competitive
global workplace.

Module 3 Overview
Mitigation and Preparedness
The discipline of mitigation provides the means for reducing disaster impacts. Mitigation is defined as a sustained action to reduce or eliminate risk to people and property from hazards and their effects. Preparedness within the field of emergency management can be defined not only as a state of readiness to respond to a disaster, crisis or any other type of emergency situation, but also a theme throughout most aspects of emergency management. In this module, you will describe the variety of mitigation tools available to planners. You will understand the impediments to mitigation and other associated problems that exist. You will explain how the Federal Government and other agencies and organizations support mitigation. Different mitigation measures that are performed to address actual disaster risk will be addressed.
In addition, you will understand why preparedness is considered the “building block” of emergency management. The differences that exist between hazard mitigation and disaster preparedness will be discussed. Evaluation planning is important and will be focused upon in this module. The different emergency management exercise types will be identified. Training and equipment for first responders will be described. Lastly, you will learn how businesses and nongovernmental organizations prepare for emergencies.

Preparedness within the field of emergency management can be defined not only as a state of readiness to respond to a disaster, crisis or any other type of emergency situation, but also a theme throughout most aspects of emergency management. In this module, you will describe the variety of mitigation tools available to planners. You will understand the impediments to mitigation and other associated problems that exist. You will explain how the Federal Government and other agencies and organizations support mitigation. Different mitigation measures that are performed to address actual disaster risk will be addressed.
In addition, you will understand why preparedness is considered the “building block” of emergency management. The differences that exist between hazard mitigation and disaster preparedness will be discussed. Evaluation planning is important and will be focused upon in this module. The different emergency management exercise types will be identified. Training and equipment for first responders will be described. Lastly, you will learn how businesses and nongovernmental organizations prepare for emergencies.

The Disciplines of Emergency Management: Mitigation
The discipline of mitigation provides the means for reducing disaster impacts. Mitigation is defined as a sustained action to reduce or eliminate risk to people and property from hazards and their effects. The body of knowledge and applications in the area of mitigation are still evolving, but many successes have been achieved. Additionally, many of the successfu ...

"Rethinking Kållered │ From Big Box to a Reuse Hub: A Transformation Journey Toward Sustainability"
The booklet of my master’s thesis at the Department of Architecture and Civil Engineering at Chalmers University of Technology. (Gothenburg, Sweden)
This thesis explores the transformation of the vacated (2023) IKEA store in Kållered, Sweden, into a "Reuse Hub" addressing various user types. The project aims to create a model for circular and sustainable economic practices that promote resource efficiency, waste reduction, and a shift in societal overconsumption patterns.
Reuse, though crucial in the circular economy, is one of the least studied areas. Most materials with reuse potential, especially in the construction sector, are recycled (downcycled), causing a greater loss of resources and energy. My project addresses barriers to reuse, such as difficult access to materials, storage, and logistics issues.
Aims:
• Enhancing Access to Reclaimed Materials: Creating a hub for reclaimed construction materials for both institutional and individual needs.
• Promoting Circular Economy: Showcasing the potential and variety of reusable materials and how they can drive a circular economy.
• Fostering Community Engagement: Developing spaces for social interaction around reuse-focused stores and workshops.
• Raising Awareness: Transforming a former consumerist symbol into a center for circular practices.
Highlights:
• The project emphasizes cross-sector collaboration with producers and wholesalers to repurpose surplus materials before they enter the recycling phase.
• This project can serve as a prototype for reusing many idle commercial buildings in different scales and sizes.
• The findings indicate that transforming large vacant properties can support sustainable practices and present an economically attractive business model with high social returns at the same time.
• It highlights the potential of how sustainable practices in the construction sector can drive societal change.

Visual communication is communication through
visual aid and is described as the conveyance of
ideas and information in forms that can be read or
looked upon. Visual communication in part or
whole relies on vision,[1] and is primarily presented
or expressed with two dimensionalimages, it
includes: signs, typography, drawing, graphic
design, illustration, colour and electronic
resources. It also explores the idea that a visual
message[2] accompanying text has a greater power
to inform, educate, or persuade a person or
audience.

3. An impression (in the context of advertising) is a
measure of the number of times an ad is displayed,
whether it is clicked on or not.[1] Each time an ad
displays it is counted as one impression.[2]
Because of the possibility of click
fraud, robotic activity is usually filtered and
excluded, and a more technical definition is given
for accounting purposes by the IAB, a standards
and watchdog industry group: "Impression" is a
measurement of responses from a Web server to
apage request from the user browser, which is
filtered from robotic activity and error codes, and
is recorded at a point as close as possible to
opportunity to see the page by the user

4. Strategy (Greek "στρατηγία"—stratēgia, "art of
troop leader; office of general, command,
generalship"[1]) is a high level plan to achieve one
or more goals under conditions of uncertainty.
Strategy is important because the resources
available to achieve these goals are usually limited.
Strategy is also about attaining and maintaining a
position of advantage over adversaries through the
successive exploitation of known or emergent
possibilities rather than committing to any specific
fixed plan designed at the outset.
Henry Mintzberg from McGill University defined
strategy as "a pattern in a stream of decisions" to
contrast with a view of strategy as
planning[2]while Max McKeown (2011) argues that
"strategy is about shaping the future" and is the
human attempt to get to "desirable ends with
available means".
