Filling an iteration too well
Statistically this is just very unlikely to happen. Sustainable yes, but not as productive as they could be. I want to stick with the theme of “how do I fill an iteration?” for a couple more entries. There are a lot of little nuances here, and what works for one team at one time might not be the best thing for another team, or even the same team at a different time. appreciated Ed’s comments on my last entry , I think they go to show how small variations work well for individual teams. However, sometimes variations hold problems. Occasionally this happens, thats not unusual.

MongoDB vs. SQL Server 2008 Performance Showdown
If you were to attempt to plan out your operating costs per user to help guide the pricing of your product then the cost of storing, querying, and managing your data will likely be a significant part of that calculation. One more story before we see the statistics. This article is a follow up one I wrote last week entitled “The NoSQL Movement, LINQ, and MongoDB - Oh My!”. In that article I introduced the NoSQL movement, MongoDB, and showed you how to program against it in.NET using LINQ and NoRM. Those were. Ease-of-use and deployment. Performance. money) to burn. Think about it.

'Wired for Innovation' and the Trouble with business value
In fact, if you have read anything by Brynjolfsson before there is a good chance it was his work on the “productivity paradox.” The authors know about measuring IT and have some fascinating statistics. Firstly the book resolves the “productivity gap”. This was the observation in the late 1980’s that despite all the investment in productivity enhancing IT there was no resulting increase in productivity in the production and GDP statistics. At a little over 100 pages and £10 it is worth the investment. The explanation turns out to be: time.

Productivity & IT - US trumps Europe
The full report is available from the Office of National Statistics for free , and it has been reported in the FT (10 October 2005) – I’m sure it has been reported elsewhere too. The report is interesting because it looked at the difference in productivity growth between Europe and the USA in the last ten years. It appears that the USA is increasing productivity faster than Europe. But the really interesting thing is: US companies in Europe are increasing productivity inline with the US rather than Europe. It goes on to attribute this to two reasons. Think about it.

SOS: finding the method bound to an EventHandler with WinDbg.
This, of course, is bad form because the System.Web.UI.Page object is intended to be a transient object - it goes away at the end of the request - in production code, I would really bind the event to a handler in global.asax instead. total 519 objects Statistics: MT Count TotalSize Class Name 0548cbd4 519 197220 ASP.default_aspx Total 519 objects. I was preparing a sample memory leak application for an Advanced C# class at Microsoft this past week and debugging through it with SOS.DLL ("Son of Strike"). But as I said, this was a sample. load sos 0:000> !DumpHeap Address MT Size.

Burn-down charts: The Good, Bad, advice and alternatives
Burn-down charts were popularised by Scrum where there are, strictly speaking, two types of burn-down chart: the product burn-down chart and the sprint burn-down chart. My bigger issue lies with the Product Backlog burn-down chart. When the thing under development is a Product or a Programme development work may continue for a long time, perhaps ever. Then do plenty of statistical tracking. I’ve never completely accepted burn-down charts. know they are a staple of Agile development and I’ve even used them myself but I’ve never been completely happy with them.

Kanban: efficient or predictable, you decide
In summary queuing theory explains why in any production system you can have predictable deliveries up to 76% of utilisation. As I understand it teams then apply statistical methods and observation to calculate the flow through the system. I have written a little about the Kanban method of software development in the past. And thanks to the comments from Karl and Wayne, plus a few on the side conversations with other people I have a better understanding of what is going on. Although I’ve still to see it in action.) And this is is - drum role. But I am saying there is a trade off.

Thoughts after Jeff Sutherland at ACCU London
Data from Yahoo shows that teams adopting Scrum on their own show a 35% productivity improvement. For those who want it the original source of this statistic is "Rolling Out Agile at a Large Enterprise" by Gabrielle Benefield at the Hawaii International Conference on Software System, 2008.) • Not only does Jeff endorse the addition of XP technical practices (TDD, refactoring, pair-programming, etc.) Jeff Sutherland was back in London last week and was good enough to give a talk to ACCU London. This was something of a coup for us. Thanks JP Morgan!
