Ed Yourdon on Agile

Ed Yourdon seems to have fallen off my radar so far this century. Last century I read a lot of his stuff and came to respect him as a man who knows what he’s talking about when it comes to IT and software development.

(If you haven’t heard of him, or don’t believe me just look at the list of books he’s written.)

I recently discovered that he has a blog, and from there that he has recently been to the Agile 2010 conference. In fact it appears that the whole Agile thing has, to a large part, passed him by.

Objective Agility - what does it take to be an Agile company?

Modern Analyst has published my latest piece about Agile at the company level: Objective Agility - what does it take to be an Agile company?

This is actually a bit of a taster for a presentation of with the same title I’ll be doing at the IIBA Business Analysis conference in a few weeks.

Whitepaper from HP - Why Focus on Requirements Definition Management in the Application Lifecycle?

Increasingly, smart businesses are looking much closer at requirements definition (RD) and requirements management (RM) (sometimes grouped together under the Gartner-coined phrase, requirements definition management (RDM)) to streamline the entire application lifecycle. Why? Because systematic and effective RDM captures software defects earlier in the lifecycle, and it reduces the overall likelihood that defects will be introduced. That’s important. How important? According to one study, the cost to fix a defect after delivery is more than 100 times the cost to fix it in the requirement and design phase. No business wants to be hit with that bill. Now to add to this the growing interest in agile development techniques as a way to deliver higher quality applications and we have an interesting recipe for success.
