Broy, E. Denert, Springer 2002 241 Tom DeMarco Structured Analysis: Beginnings of a New Discipline How it happened When I arrived at Bell Telephone Laboratories in the fall of 1963, I was immediately assigned to the ESS-1 project. This was a hardware/software endeavor to develop the world’s first commercial stored program telephone switch (now installed in telephone offices all over the world). At the time, the project was made up of some 600 persons, divided about half-and-half between hardware and software. There was also a small simulation group (a dozen people?) working to create an early prediction of system perfor- mance and robustness. I was at first assigned to the hardware group. My assignment was to de- velop certain circuits that enabled Emergency Action, the reconfiguration of processors when one was judged to have failed. This was an intriguing assignment since each of the two processors would diagnose the other and then try to decide together and agree on which one was incapable of furt- her processing – but somehow still capable to judge its own sanity. 242 Tom DeMarco To all of our surprise, the software for the project turned out to require a lot more effort than the hardware.

  • Examining Capabilities As Architecture
    September 2013 BPTrends ▪ Examining Capabilities as Architecture Examining Capabilities as Architecture Ralph Whittle Introduction This Article is a direct response to one written by Mike Rosen titled, “Are Capabilities Architecture?” [1] published in February 2013 by BPTrends It offers a different and contrasting point of view on accepting capability modeling and mapping as “architecture.” Business Architecture (BA) approaches and methods, while still evolving, have at least reached a point of maturity where the enterprise can fairly assess how it will develop and advance this initiative. As with any emerging field, a variety of approaches and methods will develop and enjoy success. From an historical perspective, consider the number of Business Process Management (BPM), Enterprise Architecture (EA) and Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) approaches that have matured over the years. And no doubt, the same will eventually occur with the Business Architecture over the next few years. However, just as with the BPM, EA and SOA some different and contrasting points of view will find their way into the various Business Architecture approaches, techniques and methods. Today, at least two different and contrasting organizing principles are considered for Business Architecture. One is “capability centric” and the other is “process centric.” This article advocates and supports the “process centric” organizing principle, specifically using a value stream which is an end-to-end collection of activities that creates a result for a “customer,” who may be the ultimate customer or an internal “end user” of the value stream. The value stream has a clear goal: to satisfy (or, better, to delight) the customer.[2] This is a well known term, familiar in Six Sigma, Lean Manufacturing and BPM approaches.

  • Risk Managment on an Agile Project
    BIO PRESENTATION W3 6/28/2006 11:30 AM RISK MANAGMENT ON AN AGILE PROJECT Michele Sliger Rally Software Development Better Software Conference June 26 – 29, 2006 Las Vegas, NV USA Michele Sliger Michele Sliger has worked in software development for almost 20 years. Michele has extensive experience in agile methodologies, having employed agile practices as a founding member of the engineering teams at biotech start-ups UroCor and Genomica. At Genomica, Michele honed her Scrum and XP skills while working under Mike Cohn, a recognized founder of the Agile movement. She carried that experience forward into Qwest, where she served as an XP Coach on a team tasked with developing high-profile financial applications. She has an undergraduate degree in MIS and an MBA. She is a certified Project Management Professional (PMP), a Certified Scrum Master (CSM) and an active member of the board of the Agile Denver chapter. Currently, Sliger works as an agile consultant at Rally Software Development, where she trains software development teams in agile methodologies. In addition to her work for Rally, Sliger is also an adjunct faculty member of the University of Colorado where she teaches Software Project Management to graduate engineering students. Throughout her career, she has performed the gamut of software development roles, including programmer, database administrator, quality assurance manager, process manager and project manager.

  • Chapter 1: Introduction
    Just Enough Structured Analysis Chapter 1: Introduction “The beginnings and endings of all human undertakings are untidy, the building of a house, the writing of a novel, the demolition of a bridge, and, eminently, the finish of a voyage.” — John Galsworthy Over the River, 1933 www.yourdon.com ©2006 Ed Yourdon - rev. 051406 In this chapter, you will learn: 1. Why systems analysis is interesting; 2. Why systems analysis is more difficult than programming; and 3. Why it is important to be familiar with systems analysis. Chances are that you groaned when you first picked up this book, seeing how heavy and thick it was. The prospect of reading such a long, technical book is enough to make anyone gloomy; fortunately, just as long journeys take place one day at a time, and ultimately one step at a time, so long books get read one chapter at a time, and ultimately one sentence at a time. 1.1 Why is systems analysis interesting? Long books are often dull; fortunately, the subject matter of this book — systems analysis — is interesting. In fact, systems analysis is more interesting than anything I know, with the possible exception of sex and some rare vintages of Australian wine. Without a doubt, it is more interesting than computer programming (not that programming is dull) because it involves studying the interactions of people, and disparate groups of people, and computers and organizations. As Tom DeMarco said in his delightful book, Structured Analysis and Systems Specification (DeMarco, 1978), [systems] analysis is frustrating, full of complex interpersonal relationships, indefinite, and difficult.
