Local Governments often carry the bureaucracy moniker and are generally considered slow and unresponsive. Yet, people expect and should experience prompt outcomes from their local governments. Transforming to Agile offers the foundation for governments to be more responsive to citizens and deliver higher quality services more often. Working with each other, collaborating with customers, responding to change and accountability are common to both Agile and government alike. One can easily connect Agile with Local Government based on these principles, however, putting Agile into practice at a Local Government is a different story altogether.Valuable Agile Retrospectives: The Making of - XP Days 2014 - Ben Linders

Writing a book by two people who never met each other face 2 face when they wrote, published and promoted the book is an amazing experience! Having it translated by self organized agile teams all around the world makes it awesome!!! Come and hear how we did this and what made it work, and learn how you can effectively work with people all around the world.
In 2013 Luis Gon巽alves and I wrote the book Getting Value out of Agile Retrospectives. We did this by working together fully remote. We self-published it in December 2013 and gained many readers worldwide. We never met each other in person until April 2014, and are still collaborating to promote the book and helping teams worldwide to get more value out of doing agile retrospectives.
In 2014 we started with teams of volunteers all around the world to translate our book. Working remotely with people that you don't know, from different cultures, with their own ways of working, and on different continents is certainly challenging, but it turned out to be an effective and fun way to do it!
Join this session to learn:
- how you can get to know people and work together remote, i.e. without meeting face 2 face;
- which tools you can use to collaborate and communicate when working remote together;
- how you can translate a book with self organized distributed agile teams of volunteers;
- and how value, trust and respect can make it all possible.Scrum Bangalore 13th meet up 13 june 2015 - n ways to retrospective - nagesh ...

The document discusses ways to make retrospectives for agile software development teams more engaging and effective. It suggests adding hypotheses to retrospectives to give them more purpose and focus. Various metaphor-based retrospective formats are presented, like using soccer or cooking terms, to help teams think differently. The key ideas are that retrospectives need purpose and new perspectives to avoid repetition and keep people motivated to work on identified issues.Facebook retrospective
Facebook retrospectiveJasper Verdooren
油
This document describes a retrospective method called the "Facebook retrospective" designed by the author. It involves printing topics related to the Scrum process on cards and having team members vote on whether they "like" or "dislike" each topic. The results are analyzed to identify topics the team agrees or disagrees on, and actions are generated for topics of disagreement. The retrospective is timeboxed to one hour and includes an energizer, voting activity, discussion of results, and generating actions for the next sprint. Feedback from trying this method is to allow a neutral option for voting and to allow custom topic cards.Getting the Right Things Done

This document summarizes a negative experience with the waterfall software development process. It describes creating a 500 page product requirements document, making design decisions without validation that were later discovered to be bad, and wasting effort due to changes and an unvalidated design. The waterfall process is said to only work if requirements are known exactly upfront, but even then changes happen. Iterative processes are suggested to succeed better by discovering problems earlier.User Research in Agile projects

It argues that projects have predefined outcomes, timelines and resources which do not reflect the reality of software development. Rather than focusing on project completion dates, the document suggests organizing work into features and prioritizing continuous delivery through small, frequent releases. This allows for adapting to change and failing fast. It also proposes keeping teams together long-term to maintain knowledge and momentum.No process, process development method

In this paper, a spectral feature extraction algorithm is proposed for palm-print recognition, which can efficiently capture the detail spatial variations in a palm-print image. The entire image is segmented into several spatial modules and the task of feature extraction is carried out using two dimensional Fourier transform within those spatial modules. A dominant spectral feature selection algorithm is proposed, which offers an advantage of very low feature dimension and results in a very high within-class compactness and between-class separability of the extracted features. A principal component analysis is performed to further reduce the feature dimension. From our extensive experimentations on different palm-print databases, it is found that the performance of the proposed method in terms of recognition accuracy and computational complexity is superior to that of some of the recent methods.

1) A study evaluated variable thinning treatments designed to restore forest structural heterogeneity and enhance ecosystem services in a mixed conifer forest in California's Sierra Nevada mountains.
2) Preliminary results found that variable thinning produced within-stand heterogeneity closest to historical conditions and the strongest understory vegetation response when combined with prescribed burning.
3) Early findings also included a slight but non-significant increase in snow accumulation and retention with variable thinning treatments. Long-term impacts on forest resilience remain to be seen.02 sexual reproduction in flowering plants
02 sexual reproduction in flowering plantsAditya Srivastava
油
Flowering plants reproduce sexually through a process involving flowers, pollen grains, and double fertilization. Flowers contain male stamens and female pistils that produce pollen grains and ovules. Pollen grains contain sperm cells that can fertilize the ovules, leading to the formation of seeds. Stamens contain microsporangia that undergo meiosis to form microspores, which develop into pollen grains containing vegetative and generative cells. Pollen lands on the pistil, and the generative cells divide to produce sperm cells. Double fertilization occurs when one sperm cell fuses with the egg cell to form the embryo, and another with the central cells to form the endosperm.

Today's mobile application development is a complex endeavor made more difficult by teams often working at cross purposes. Separation of roles and responsibilities leads to intricate technological and personnel dependencies that makes projects challenging. Mark Hashimoto shares personal insights and lessons learned during the agile development effort of Comcast XFINITY Home iOS and Android mobile apps. Mark suggests that defining system interfaces first allows client, server, and test teams to develop in parallel; limiting mobile UX reviews to objective matters rather than subjective opinions builds trust and respect; creating binary acceptance criteria removes sprint completion ambiguity; and adhering to disciplined meeting goals reduces wasted time. However, not all lessons learned were of a technical or procedural nature. Mark describes the human dynamics involved and the most common frustrations facing your teamtoo many meetings, rework caused by ambiguous mobile requirements, missed deadlines, and problems that arise from a lack of time.Eric Naiburg (Scrum.org)

- The document discusses planning in Scrum, noting that while Scrum does not favor long-term detailed plans, it does support planning through events like Sprint Planning and refinement.
- A key part of Scrum is the Product Backlog, which holds all requirements and is prioritized and refined throughout development. Upcoming items are refined to be "ready" for selection in Sprints.
- Sprints are timeboxed iterations where development work is pulled from the Product Backlog to form the Sprint Backlog and goals. Progress is reported through metrics like velocity.An evolving view of project management

This document discusses evolving views of project management. It begins by outlining that the discussion will focus on structured and agile project management methods based on the author's experience. It then notes that effective project management alone does not provide value, but rather influences the effectiveness of existing systems. The key is establishing project management in a cost-effective way that represents a good return on investment. The document goes on to discuss choosing appropriate project management tools based on a team's maturity level, with more structured methods like Scrum suited for newer teams and a mix of methods or no formal method potentially suitable for very experienced teams. It also touches on estimation as an optional tool that depends on availability of knowledge and managing user expectations.Real world experience from Microsoft - Deniz Ercoskun
