Project management for incremental delivery / iterative development projects by Johanna Rothman

A rolling wave plan is a continuous detailed schedule that's only a few weeks long. As you complete one week of detailed schedule, you add another week to the end of the schedule. With a four- week rolling wave schedule, I never have less than four weeks of detailed schedule, and I never have more than four weeks of detailed schedule.

Managing prioritization with a whiteboard, and the Happy Brian List.

Im Podcast Interview von Christian Höcht beleuchtet Dr. Gernot Starke die Aufgaben und das Zusammenspiel von Projektleiter, Software-Architekt und Analytiker. Ich finde das Interview hörenswert, weil Gernot Starke einige wichtige Aspekte der Projektarbeit in klaren Worten beschreibt. Außerdem der trockene Humor von Gernot Starke und die unkonventionellen Fragen von Christian Höcht.

A two-question survey on which CMMI and RMM levels you use.  Please take a minute to respond to the survey - the data helps Tyner Blain (and ultimately everyone who wants to know) make strategic decisions.

Tips on things to do before during and after a meeting to make it more effective.

CMMI is the initialism for Capability Maturity Model Integration.

CMMI is a numeric scale used to “rate” the maturity of a software development process or team. Maturity can be thought of like enlightenment. An immature process is not much different from the old “infinite monkeys” yarn - maybe we get it right, but probably not. A fully matured or enlightened process not only does it right, but improves itself over time.

Solid explanation of the principals behind, definition of, and ways to create and apply PERT estimates for project planning.

An introductory article about making sure you vesion control and maintain traceability over your requirements.

Requirements traceability is an important asect of good requirements management.  If you are new to requirements management or business analysis this is a good introduction to some good practices.

“What CMMI level should we use?” is not the right question, but it is the question most people ask.

The CMMI (Capability Maturity Model Integration) of a software development process is the measure of that process’s capability. The goal of the measurement is to provide an assessment of the capability of a process with respect to creating software.

Primarily focused on how to get participants who have to "do their homework" before the meeting to actually do it, or to adapt to their inability to do it.
