Agile and Iterative Development - a Managers Guide - Craig Larman




På dette seminaret får du den definitive guiden til iterative utviklingsmetoder; hva de er, hvordan de fungerer, hvordan de skal implementeres - og hvorfor du bør gjøre det. Kursholderen er Craig Larman, en av verdens mest kjente profiler innen fremgangsrike metoder og prosesser for systemutvikling. Dette er et praktisk seminar som henvender seg spesielt til ledere og prosjektledere.

“(Craig is) a great teacher, a brilliant methodologist, and an ‘OO guru’.” —Philippe Kruchten, lead architect, the Rational Unified Process; author, The RUP: An Introduction.

“Craig is articulate, moves people, is caring, is visionary and very perceptive about what works and what does not.” —Peter Coad, CEO, TogetherSoft

“Too few people have a knack for explaining things. Fewer still have a handle on software analysis and design. Craig Larman has both.” —John Vlissides, author, Design Patterns.

This practical, information-packed seminar summarizes the key research, ideas, and practices of iterative development, aimed at executive and project leadership. This is a high-impact guide for managers and students to agile and iterative development methods: what they are, how they work, how to implement them – and why you should.

Using statistically significant research and case studies, noted methods expert Craig Larman presents a convincing case for iterative development. Larman offers a concise, information-packed summary of the key ideas that drive all agile and iterative processes, with the details of several noteworthy iterative methods: Scrum, XP, Lean Software Development, and the Unified Process. Coverage includes:

– Compelling evidence that iterative methods reduce project risk
– Frequently asked questions
– Agile and iterative values and practices
– Dozens of useful iterative and agile practice tips
– New management skills for agile/iterative project leaders
– The Lean Manufacturing/Thinking movements and their application to software development
– Key practices of Scrum, XP, Lean Software Development, Crystal, and an agile UP

Whether you’re an IT executive, project manager, student of software engineering, or developer, Craig Larman will help you understand the promise of agile/iterative development, sell it throughout your organization – and transform the promise into reality.
