Abstract Software is developed in increasingly dynamic environments. Organizations need the capability to deal with uncertainty and to react to unexpected changes in require- ments and technologies. Agile methods already improve the flexibility towards changes and with the emergence of continuous delivery, regular feedback loops have become possible. The abilities to maintain high code quality through reviews, to regularly re- lease software, and to collect and prioritize user feedback, are necessary for con- tinuous software engineering. However, there exists no uniform process model that handles the increasing number of reviews, releases and feedback reports. In this dissertation, we describe Rugby, a process model for continuous software en- gineering that is based on a meta model, which treats development activities as parallel workflows and which allows tailoring, customization and extension. Rugby includes a change model and treats changes as events that activate workflows. It integrates re- view management, release management, and feedback management as workflows. As a consequence, Rugby handles the increasing number of reviews, releases and feedback and at the same time decreases their size and effort.

  • MAKING DATA MODELS READABLE David C
    MAKING DATA MODELS READABLE David C. Hay Essential Strategies, Inc. “Confusion and clutter are failures of [drawing] design, not attributes of information. And so the point is to find design strategies that reveal detail and complexity ¾ rather than to fault the data for an excess of complication. Or, worse, to fault viewers for a lack of understanding.” ¾ Edward R. Tufte1 Entity/relationship models (or simply “data models”) are powerful tools for analyzing and representing the structure of an organization. Properly used, they can reveal subtle relationships between elements of a business. They can also form the basis for robust and reliable data base design. Data models have gotten a bad reputation in recent years, however, as many people have found them to be more trouble to produce and less beneficial than promised. Discouraged, people have gone on to other approaches to developing systems ¾ often abandoning modeling altogether, in favor of simply starting with system design. Requirements analysis remains important, however, if systems are ultimately to do something useful for the company. And modeling ¾ especially data modeling ¾ is an essential component of requirements analysis. It is important, therefore, to try to understand why data models have been getting such a “bad rap”. Your author believes, along with Tufte, that the fault lies in the way most people design the models, not in the underlying complexity of what is being represented. An entity/relationship model has two primary objectives: First it represents the analyst’s public understanding of an enterprise, so that the ultimate consumer of a prospective computer system can be sure that the analyst got it right.

  • Agile Methods: Where Did “Agile Thinking” Come From?
    Historical Roots of Agile Methods: Where did “Agile Thinking” Come from? Noura Abbas, Andrew M Gravell, Gary B Wills School of Electronics and Computer Science, University of Southampton Southampton, SO17 1BJ, United Kingdom {na06r, amg, gbw}@ecs.soton.ac.uk Abstract. The appearance of Agile methods has been the most noticeable change to software process thinking in the last fifteen years [16], but in fact many of the “Agile ideas” have been around since 70’s or even before. Many studies and reviews have been conducted about Agile methods which ascribe their emergence as a reaction against traditional methods. In this paper, we argue that although Agile methods are new as a whole, they have strong roots in the history of software engineering. In addition to the iterative and incremental approaches that have been in use since 1957 [21], people who criticised the traditional methods suggested alternative approaches which were actually Agile ideas such as the response to change, customer involvement, and working software over documentation. The authors of this paper believe that education about the history of Agile thinking will help to develop better understanding as well as promoting the use of Agile methods. We therefore present and discuss the reasons behind the development and introduction of Agile methods, as a reaction to traditional methods, as a result of people's experience, and in particular focusing on reusing ideas from history. Keywords: Agile Methods, Software Development, Foundations and Conceptual Studies of Agile Methods. 1 Introduction Many reviews, studies and surveys have been conducted on Agile methods [1, 20, 15, 23, 38, 27, 22].

  • Alignment of Business and Application Layers of Archimate
    Alignment of Business and Application Layers of ArchiMate Oleg Svatoš1, Václav Řepa1 1Department of Information Technologies, Faculty of Informatics and Statistics, University of Economics, Prague [email protected], [email protected] Abstract. ArchiMate is widely used standard for modelling enterprise architec- ture and organizes the model in separate yet interconnected layers. Unfortunate- ly the ArchiMate specification provides us with rather brief detail on the rela- tions between the individual layers and the guidelines how to have them aligned. In this paper we focus on the alignment between business and applica- tion layers especially alignment of business processes and application functions, which we see as crucial condition for proper and consistent enterprise architec- ture. For this alignment we propose an extension for ArchiMate based on the development done in Methodology for Modelling and Analysis of Business Process (MMABP). Application of the proposed extension is illustrated on an example and its benefits discussed. Keywords: business process model·Enterprise Architec- ture·ArchiMate·TOGAF·MMABP·functional model·object life cycle 1 Introduction The enterprise architecture plays an important role in current corporate management. Enterprises realized that after the initial spontaneous growth and accumulation of dif- ferent legacy systems over the years, it is necessary to create the living organism forming an enterprise under some kind of control in order to allow managing it. The enterprise architecture is one of the tools which help them to do it. There are different frameworks for capturing the enterprise architectures like FEAF [20], DoDAF [21], ISO 19439 [22], etc. out of which the most popular standard is the TOGAF [14] accompanied by ArchiMate as the modelling language [1].

  • 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.

    Death March projects Ed Yourdon email: [email protected] web: http://www.yourdon.com blog: http://www.yourdon.com/blog JaSST keynote presentation January 30, 2007 What is a “death-march” project? Origin: "extreme" sports, ultra-marathon, triathlons, etc. Sometimes known as "death- march" projects Almost always: Significant schedule pressure -- project must be finished in far less than "nominal" time. Often: Staffing shortages -- project must be done with significantly fewer people than in a "normal" project Sometimes: budget limitations -- inadequate funding to pay for people, development tools, and other resources. Inevitably: greater risks (>50% chance of failure), more pressure, unpleasant politics Almost always: heavy overtime (more than just 10-20% extra effort), personal sacrifices, increased burnout, higher turnover, lower productivity, lower quality Increasingly often: significant corporate consequences (e.g., bankruptcy), lawsuits, personal legal liabilities Copyright © 2007 by Edward Yourdon 2 Your next assignment “Give me an estimate for the XYZ system. I think it will take… 6 months 5 people ¥2,500,000 I need the estimate by the end of the day.” Copyright © 2007 by Edward Yourdon 3 Your assessment I think it will take… 12 months 10 people ¥10,000,000 …but I really need more time for a careful estimate!” Question for discussion: what if this scenario occurs on every project? Copyright © 2007 by Edward Yourdon 4 INTRODUCTION : What’s so different about death-march projects? Users and managers are becoming ever more demanding. Many of today's projects are defined as “mission-critical” Many "extreme" projects require BPR to succeed -- just like the early days of client-server projects, during which we learned that 80% of BPR projects were failures.

  • Tool Support for Risk-Driven Planning of Trustworthy Smart Iot Systems Within Devops
    Tool support for risk-driven planning of trustworthy smart IoT systems within DevOps Andreas Thompson Thesis submitted for the degree of Master in Informatics: programming and networks 60 credits Department of Informatics Faculty of mathematics and natural sciences UNIVERSITY OF OSLO Autumn 2019 Tool support for risk-driven planning of trustworthy smart IoT systems within DevOps Andreas Thompson © 2019 Andreas Thompson Tool support for risk-driven planning of trustworthy smart IoT systems within DevOps http://www.duo.uio.no/ Printed: Reprosentralen, University of Oslo Abstract The Internet of Things is rising in popularity across many different domains, such as build automation, healthcare, electrical smart metering and physical security. Many prominent IT experts and companies like Gartner expect there to be a continued rise in the amount of IoT endpoints, with an estimated 5.8 million endpoints in 2020. With the rapid growth of the devices, the physical nature of these devices, and the amount of data collected, there will be a greater need for trustworthiness. These devices often gather personal data and as the devices have relatively less computational power than other devices, security and privacy risks are greater. With the IoT systems often operating in highly dynamic environments, the development of these systems should often be done in an iterative manner. De- vOps is an increasingly popular agile practice which combines the development and operations of systems to provide continuous delivery. This is well suited for the development of IoT systems. However, there is currently a lack of support for risk driven planning of trust- worthy smart IoT systems within DevOps.
