Finding the Right Process Mix in the Real World

چکیده
Developing shrinkwrap hypertext and engineering products inside entrepreneurial companies provides an instructive set of process mixes to study. One-man projects with some process elements were often successful. Team projects with no process ingredients were generally failures. A lightweight, XP-like process, consisting of shared story, lo-fi requirements, throw-away design artifacts, coding standards, unit testing, and continuous release, was most successful of all. Different code ownership models have proven successful: clarity of code ownership is more important than the exact model. Software tools suited to lightweight processes share certain characteristics and must be chosen carefully. When project scope and organizational culture dictate that communication, not artifacts, should be the point of requirements and design, then light is right. But light or agile must be a conscious choice: In the absence of a process decision, software development will reflect the organization’s default process, which may lead to disaster.

An Algorithm Based on Theory of Constraints and Branch and Bound for Solving Integrated Product-Mix-Outsourcing Problem
One of the most important decision making problems in many production systems is identification and determination of products and their quantities according to available resources. This problem is called product-mix. However, in the real-world situations, for existing constrained resources, many companies try to provide some products from external resources to achieve more profits. In this pape...

Sometimes the quality of a process or product is described by a functional relationship between a response variable and one or more explanatory variables referred to as profile. In most researches in this area the response variable is assumed to be normally distributed; however, occasionally in certain applications, the normality assumption is violated. In these cases the Generalized Linear Mod...
