    Understanding and Applying Correspondence Analysis

    Customer segments, personality profiles, social classes, and age generations are examples of effective references to larger groups of people sharing similar characteristics. Correspondence analysis (CA) is a multivariate analysis technique that projects categorical data into a numeric feature space which captures most of the variability in the data by fewer dimensions.

  • #NoEstimates Project Planning Using Monte Carlo Simulation

    Customers come to us with a new product idea and they always ask the questions - how long will it take and how much will it cost us to deliver? Reality is uncertain, yet we as software developers are expected to deliver new products with certainty. This article shows how to do planning using reference class forecasting with the #NoEstimates paradigm which promises more accuracy in forecasts.

  • Standish: Why were Project Failures Up and Cost Overruns Down in 1998?

    Following InfoQ's August interview with Jim Johnson, creator of the CHAOS Chronicles on project failure, one important question remained: how does the Standish Group explain the amazing change in cost overrun from 189% in 1994 to 69% in 1998? In an excerpt from this month's CHAOS University newsletter, Johnson refers to events in 1996 that changed the complexion of project planning and execution.

  • Agile Alliance Survey: Are We There Yet?

    Diana Larsen, a member of the Agile Alliance Board of Directors, leads a lot of retrospectives... So, it's not surprising that, when she asked herself "Where is Agile going now?" her response was to run a retrospective of her own. She circulated a survey to the other Agile Alliance board members, and has compiled a picture of the trends they're seeing in the Agile world.
