I want to persuade you to do something&lt;br /&gt;equally important in the course of your reading. I want to persuade&lt;br /&gt;you to "write between the lines." Unless you do, you are not likely to&lt;br /&gt;do the most efficient kind of reading.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I contend, quite bluntly, that marking up a book is not an act&lt;br /&gt;of mutilation but of love.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You shouldn't mark up a book which isn't yours. Librarians&lt;br /&gt;(or your friends) who lend you books expect you to keep them clean,&lt;br /&gt;and you should. If you decide that I am right about the usefulness of&lt;br /&gt;marking books, you will have to buy them. Most of the world's great&lt;br /&gt;books are available today, in reprint editions, at less than a dollar.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are two ways in which one can own a book. The first is&lt;br /&gt;the property right you establish by paying for it, just as you pay for&lt;br /&gt;clothes and furniture. But this act of purchase is only the prelude to&lt;br /&gt;possession. Full ownership comes only when you have made it a part&lt;br /&gt;of yourself, and the best way to make yourself a part of it is by&lt;br /&gt;writing in it. An illustration may make the point clear. You buy a&lt;br /&gt;beefsteak and transfer it from the butcher's icebox to your own. But&lt;br /&gt;you do not own the beefsteak in the most important sense until you&lt;br /&gt;consume it and get it into your bloodstream. I am arguing that books,&lt;br /&gt;too, must be absorbed in your bloodstream to do you any good."&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32688906-3356967936214149452?l=acomai.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://acomai.blogspot.com/feeds/3356967936214149452/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=32688906&amp;postID=3356967936214149452' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32688906/posts/default/3356967936214149452'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32688906/posts/default/3356967936214149452'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://acomai.blogspot.com/2011/02/come-scrivere-su-un-libro.html' title='Come scrivere su un libro'/><author><name>Adriano Comai</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32688906.post-9097734900993803809</id><published>2011-02-08T12:15:00.004+01:00</published><updated>2011-02-08T12:22:43.297+01:00</updated><title type='text'>Italia a gambero</title><content type='html'>Nell'ultimo decennio gli altri sono andati avanti, noi indietro. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(Immagine e articolo da &lt;a href="http://www.economist.com/node/18061550?story_id=18061550&amp;fsrc=rss"&gt;The Economist&lt;/a&gt;.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_zRN6R3N5Uhc/TVEmowTlBYI/AAAAAAAADos/ufolgw_JQzI/s1600/20110205_FNC087.gif"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 337px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_zRN6R3N5Uhc/TVEmowTlBYI/AAAAAAAADos/ufolgw_JQzI/s400/20110205_FNC087.gif" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5571276695637656962" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32688906-9097734900993803809?l=acomai.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://acomai.blogspot.com/feeds/9097734900993803809/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=32688906&amp;postID=9097734900993803809' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32688906/posts/default/9097734900993803809'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32688906/posts/default/9097734900993803809'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://acomai.blogspot.com/2011/02/italia-gambero.html' title='Italia a gambero'/><author><name>Adriano Comai</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_zRN6R3N5Uhc/TVEmowTlBYI/AAAAAAAADos/ufolgw_JQzI/s72-c/20110205_FNC087.gif' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32688906.post-4528182166149359696</id><published>2011-01-03T08:40:00.003+01:00</published><updated>2011-01-03T08:50:07.076+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='italia'/><title type='text'>Out of doom: una prospettiva ideologica</title><content type='html'>Tracciata da Mario Monti, fondata sul liberalismo come &lt;a href="http://www.corriere.it/editoriali/11_gennaio_02/monti-meno-illusioni-per-dare-speranza-editoriale_07bad636-1648-11e0-9c76-00144f02aabc.shtml"&gt;antidoto agli illusionismi&lt;/a&gt; del marxismo italico e di Berlusconi.

Ad esempio:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"abbiamo un sistema d'istruzione dal rendimento assai basso; una burocrazia sia centrale che locale pletorica e inefficientissima; una giustizia tardigrada e approssimativa; una delinquenza organizzata che altrove non ha eguali; le nostre grandi città, con le periferie tra le più brutte del mondo, sono largamente invivibili e quasi sempre prive di trasporti urbani moderni (metropolitane); la rete stradale e autostradale è largamente inadeguata e quella ferroviaria, appena ci si allontana dall'Alta velocità, è da Terzo mondo; la rete degli acquedotti è un colabrodo; il nostro paesaggio è sconvolto da frane e alluvioni rovinose ad ogni pioggia intensa, mentre musei, siti archeologici e biblioteche versano in condizioni semplicemente penose. Per finire, tutto ciò che è pubblico, dai concorsi agli appalti, è preda di una corruzione capillare e indomabile. C'è poi la nostra condizione economica: abbiamo contemporaneamente le tasse e l'evasione fiscale fra le più alte d'Europa, mentre gli operai italiani ricevono salari ben più bassi della media dell'area-euro; il nostro sistema pensionistico è fra i più costosi d'Europa malgrado le numerose riforme già fatte e siamo strangolati da un debito pubblico il pagamento dei cui interessi c'impedisce d'intraprendere qualunque politica di sviluppo. Ancora: nessuno dall'estero viene a fare nuovi investimenti in Italia, ma gruppi stranieri mettono gli occhi (e sempre più spesso le mani) su quanto resta di meglio del nostro apparato economico-produttivo; nel frattempo il processo di deindustrializzazione non si arresta e la disoccupazione, specie giovanile, resta assai alta."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nella seconda parte evita di prendere posizione sulle responsabilità. Mette in un unico calderone chi si oppone a questo stato di cose e chi lo nega, affermando che in Italia le cose vanno meglio che in altri paesi e che bisogna semplicemente essere più ottimisti:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Chi dovrebbe parlare resta in silenzio. Resta in silenzio il discorso pubblico della società italiana su se stessa, consegnato ad una miseria che diviene ogni giorno meno sopportabile. Ma soprattutto resta in silenzio la politica, divisa tra lo sciropposo ottimismo di Berlusconi, il suo patetico «ghe pensi mi» da un lato, e la vacuità dei suoi oppositori dall'altro. Bersani, La Russa, Bossi, Fini, Bondi, Vendola, Verdini, Di Pietro, Casini, e chi più ne ha più ne metta credono di parlare al Paese con le loro dichiarazioni, le loro interviste, i loro attacchi a questo o a quello, i loro progetti di alleanze, di controalleanze e di governi: non sanno che in realtà se ne stanno guadagnando solo un disprezzo crescente, ne stanno solo accrescendo la distanza dal loro traballante palcoscenico. Sempre più, infatti, la loro produzione quotidiana di parole suona eguale a se stessa: ripetitiva, irreale, ridicola."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fa anche un unico calderone della stampa italiana, accusata di costituire &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"un sistema dell'informazione anch'esso perlopiù perduto dietro la chiacchiera, il «retroscena», il titolo orribilmente confidenziale su «Tonino» o «Gianfri», il mortifero articolo di «costume»."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ma il "tutto va bene" di Berlusconi e dei suoi non ha la stessa valenza dei tentativi delle opposizioni di affrontare i problemi del paese. Le scelte dei vecchi alleati del centro destra come Casini e Fini di distanziarsi dall'allegro cavalcare il disastro italiano non sono scelte di comodo. Le opposizioni storiche non sono tutte uguali: non si può confrontare la serietà di Bersani con l'arrivismo individualistico e la scarsa onestà intellettuale di Di Pietro.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;E non si può mettere insieme Belpietro e De Bortoli, Minzolini e la Gabanelli in un unico fascio. Farlo non è &lt;a href="http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qualunquismo"&gt;qualunquismo&lt;/a&gt;. E' evitare di dire tutta la verità. E chi evita di dire tutta la verità risulta complice.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32688906-891590539374275847?l=acomai.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://acomai.blogspot.com/feeds/891590539374275847/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=32688906&amp;postID=891590539374275847' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32688906/posts/default/891590539374275847'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32688906/posts/default/891590539374275847'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://acomai.blogspot.com/2010/12/italia-fine-2010.html' title='Italia a fine 2010'/><author><name>Adriano Comai</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32688906.post-1781549206740502154</id><published>2010-12-22T07:20:00.001+01:00</published><updated>2010-12-22T07:25:47.382+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='business modeling'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='ict'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='business process management'/><title type='text'>IT e BPM</title><content type='html'>La relazione tra IT e BPM (Business Process Management), in un &lt;a href="http://www.bptrends.com/deliver_file.cfm?fileType=publication&amp;fileName=advisor20101130%2Epdf"&gt;articolo&lt;/a&gt; di Paul Harmon.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32688906-1781549206740502154?l=acomai.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://acomai.blogspot.com/feeds/1781549206740502154/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=32688906&amp;postID=1781549206740502154' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32688906/posts/default/1781549206740502154'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32688906/posts/default/1781549206740502154'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://acomai.blogspot.com/2010/12/it-e-bpm.html' title='IT e BPM'/><author><name>Adriano Comai</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32688906.post-881712589825160794</id><published>2010-12-14T08:49:00.000+01:00</published><updated>2010-12-14T08:50:03.548+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='software engineering'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='psicologia'/><title type='text'>Deadline</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32688906-881712589825160794?l=acomai.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='related' href='http://www.pragprog.com/magazines/2010-12/guru-meditation' title='Deadline'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://acomai.blogspot.com/feeds/881712589825160794/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=32688906&amp;postID=881712589825160794' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32688906/posts/default/881712589825160794'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32688906/posts/default/881712589825160794'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://acomai.blogspot.com/2010/12/deadline.html' title='Deadline'/><author><name>Adriano Comai</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32688906.post-555848224618734832</id><published>2010-11-28T08:56:00.003+01:00</published><updated>2010-11-28T09:06:54.489+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='rischi'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='software engineering'/><title type='text'>I rischi dello sviluppo indisciplinato</title><content type='html'>David L.

[...]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Many of us preach about the importance of determining the requirements a software product must satisfy, but we do not show students how to organize their work so they can systematically produce a requirements specification that removes all user-visible choices from the province of the programmer.

That’s tricky!

Many of the best testers I’ve worked with didn’t even realize they wanted to be testers until someone offered them the job."&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32688906-3796298758912842364?l=acomai.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://acomai.blogspot.com/feeds/3796298758912842364/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=32688906&amp;postID=3796298758912842364' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32688906/posts/default/3796298758912842364'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32688906/posts/default/3796298758912842364'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://acomai.blogspot.com/2010/01/chi-fa-testing.html' title='Chi fa testing'/><author><name>Adriano Comai</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32688906.post-1247461262643846407</id><published>2010-01-21T18:18:00.002+01:00</published><updated>2010-01-21T18:22:26.378+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='CMMI'/><title type='text'>A fine 2010, CMMI versione 1.3</title><content type='html'>Sono previste per fine anno le nuove versioni dei modelli &lt;span class="ctAbstract"&gt;CMMI for Development (CMMI-DEV), CMMI for Acquisition (CMMI-ACQ), CMMI for Services (CMMI-SVC).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Un articolo su &lt;a href="http://www.stsc.hill.af.mil/CrossTalk/2010/01/1001PhillipsShrum.html"&gt;Crosstalk&lt;/a&gt; (The Journal of Defense Software Engineering) presenta le caratteristiche delle nuove versioni.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32688906-1247461262643846407?l=acomai.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://acomai.blogspot.com/feeds/1247461262643846407/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=32688906&amp;postID=1247461262643846407' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32688906/posts/default/1247461262643846407'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32688906/posts/default/1247461262643846407'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://acomai.blogspot.com/2010/01/fine-2010-cmmi-versione-13.html' title='A fine 2010, CMMI versione 1.3'/><author><name>Adriano Comai</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32688906.post-5906463600489463767</id><published>2010-01-21T10:02:00.002+01:00</published><updated>2010-01-21T10:08:47.808+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='software'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='testing'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='usabilità'/><title type='text'>Automation Paradox</title><content type='html'>"when a Metro subway train rammed into another train in Washington, D.C. last June, designers had to confront the unpleasant reality that automation may have been the cause.&lt;br /&gt;The accident, which killed nine people and injured 80, may have been rooted in a computer malfunction and the operator’s inability to manually apply the brakes quickly enough.&lt;br /&gt;The Metro train accident lies at the heart of what human factors experts refer to as the “automation paradox.” As automated systems become increasingly reliable and efficient, the more likely it is that human operators will mentally “switch off” and rely upon the automated system.

&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;" “Both the hits and the tail are doing well,” says Jeff Bewkes, the head of Time Warner, an American media giant. Audiences are at once fragmenting into niches and consolidating around blockbusters. Of course, media consumption has not risen much over the years, so something must be losing out. That something is the almost but not quite popular content that occupies the middle ground between blockbusters and niches. The stuff that people used to watch or listen to largely because there was little else on is increasingly being ignored. [...].&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Perhaps the best explanation of why this might be so was offered in 1963. In “Formal Theories of Mass Behaviour”, William McPhee noted that a disproportionate share of the audience for a hit was made up of people who consumed few products of that type. (Many other studies have since reached the same conclusion.) A lot of the people who read a bestselling novel, for example, do not read much other fiction. By contrast, the audience for an obscure novel is largely composed of people who read a lot. That means the least popular books are judged by people who have the highest standards, while the most popular are judged by people who literally do not know any better. An American who read just one book this year was disproportionately likely to have read “The Lost Symbol”, by Dan Brown. He almost certainly liked it."&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32688906-7225794102323242790?l=acomai.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://acomai.blogspot.com/feeds/7225794102323242790/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=32688906&amp;postID=7225794102323242790' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32688906/posts/default/7225794102323242790'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32688906/posts/default/7225794102323242790'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://acomai.blogspot.com/2009/12/un-mondo-di-hit.html' title='Un mondo di hit'/><author><name>Adriano Comai</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32688906.post-2263739697592687945</id><published>2009-11-23T10:26:00.002+01:00</published><updated>2009-11-23T10:30:30.400+01:00</updated><title type='text'>Requisiti legati al luogo fisico</title><content type='html'>"The application shall display a local street map at all times".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Alcune implicazioni legate ai requisiti nell'uso di sistemi mobili.

I governi non sono tutti uguali, e vanno tenuti in considerazione il punto di vista delle associazioni di insegnanti, dei sindacati, ecc.&lt;br /&gt;L'industria IT si è sentita minacciata dalla promessa di PC a basso prezzo (inferiori a 100 dollari, era l'obiettivo) al di fuori del propro controllo, e ha reagito con proposte alternative come il Classmate di Intel, e la nuova categoria dei Netbook.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"So rather than distributing millions of laptops to poor children itself, OLPC has motivated the PC industry to develop lower-cost, education-oriented PCs, providing developing countries with low-cost computing options directly in competition with OLPC's own innovation. In that sense, OLPC's apparent failure may be a step toward broader success in providing a new tool for children in developing countries.

The term encompasses a specific set of disciplines including defined process, inspections and walkthroughs, requirements engineering, traceability matrices, metrics, precise quality control, rigorous planning and tracking, and coding and documentation standards. All these strive for consistency of practice and predictability.&lt;br /&gt;Consistency and predictability are still desirable, but they haven’t ever been the most important things."&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32688906-7377442986742424722?l=acomai.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://acomai.blogspot.com/feeds/7377442986742424722/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=32688906&amp;postID=7377442986742424722' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32688906/posts/default/7377442986742424722'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32688906/posts/default/7377442986742424722'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://acomai.blogspot.com/2009/09/software-engineering-sorpassato.html' title='Software Engineering sorpassato?'/><author><name>Adriano Comai</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32688906.post-2127238353536945458</id><published>2009-09-25T15:16:00.000+02:00</published><updated>2009-09-25T15:18:16.188+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='organizzazione'/><title type='text'>Erodoto: divisione del lavoro in medicina (antico Egitto)</title><content type='html'>Erodoto, Storie (libro II, 84)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"L'arte della medicina è da loro [Egiziani] divisa nel modo seguente: ognuno è medico di una sola malattia e non di più.

tradurre come "proprietario del prodotto", o "responsabile del prodotto".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dal punto di vista di chi sviluppa software, corrisponde in linea di massima al ruolo di "committente", cioè di chi ha la responsabilità di decidere i requisiti da soddisfare, le priorità di realizzazione, l'accettabilità dei risultati forniti dagli sviluppatori.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Certamente è il

Non è certo il primo a smontare la creatività romantica, ma la sua argomentazione è supportata da esempi illuminanti.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Gabriel evidenzia come ogni design (di un edificio, di una poesia, di un software) sia il frutto di due relazioni:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;del designer con altri designer, e più in generale con altre persone (collaboratori, revisori, ecc.)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;del designer con il materiale trattato, che condiziona e influenza ogni scelta di design&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;Il design non è la semplice implementazione nella materia di una creazione già avvenuta nella testa del progettista, ma un graduale e progressivo processo di lavoro in cui le due relazioni (con la materia, e con le opinioni e i prodotti di altre persone) prendono forma.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32688906-6107829531816349904?l=acomai.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://acomai.blogspot.com/feeds/6107829531816349904/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=32688906&amp;postID=6107829531816349904' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32688906/posts/default/6107829531816349904'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32688906/posts/default/6107829531816349904'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://acomai.blogspot.com/2009/03/il-software-design-come-fatto-sociale.html' title='Il (software) design come fatto sociale'/><author><name>Adriano Comai</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32688906.post-1278931123327819868</id><published>2009-03-01T08:11:00.004+01:00</published><updated>2009-03-01T08:27:06.001+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='risorse umane'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='project management'/><title type='text'>Lo sviluppo sw è un fatto sociale, più che tecnologico</title><content type='html'>"As we realize that software development is often more about people - collaboration, communication, and coordination - than technology, developing 'soft skills' such as meeting-management techniques is becoming more important".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nell'articolo "When Robert Rules", su IEEE Software Jan/Feb 2009, Philippe Krutchen segnala un metodo di gestione delle riunioni pubblicato nel 1896 da un generale USA, Henry M.

After a while they reached a truce where they agreed that preplanning is best for large systems&lt;br /&gt;where reliability and risk-avoidance are prime concerns, and agile is best for small to medium systems where adaptability and user friendliness are prime concerns.&lt;br /&gt;We challenge that conclusion. Preplanning is ceasing to be a viable option for large systems. [...]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Whereas preplanned development seeks to avoid risks, evolutionary development mimics nature and embraces risks. The developers purposely expose emerging systems to risks to see how they fail, and then they build better system variants. It is better to seek risk out&lt;br /&gt;and learn how to survive it. [...]&lt;br /&gt;All the evidence says that that evolutionary processes works for systems large and small, and that risk seeking is the fastest route to fitness.

L'&lt;a href="http://www.useit.com/alertbox/agile-methods.html"&gt;argomentazione di Nielsen&lt;/a&gt; prende l'avvio dai requisiti:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Requirement specifications are always wrong.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At best — when derived with care — the requirements might reflect what&lt;br /&gt;users want. More commonly, however, they reflect the desires of user&lt;br /&gt;'representatives' who are too far removed from the coalface to know the&lt;br /&gt;details of the real work. In any case, what users want and what users need&lt;br /&gt;are two different things, which is why it's long been a primary usability&lt;br /&gt;guideline to watch what users do, rather than listen to what they say".&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32688906-4103855892956538681?l=acomai.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://acomai.blogspot.com/feeds/4103855892956538681/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=32688906&amp;postID=4103855892956538681' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32688906/posts/default/4103855892956538681'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32688906/posts/default/4103855892956538681'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://acomai.blogspot.com/2008/11/usabilit-requisiti-e-progetti-agili.html' title='Usabilità, requisiti e progetti agili'/><author><name>Adriano Comai</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32688906.post-4168975173150700673</id><published>2008-11-29T11:05:00.004+01:00</published><updated>2009-01-13T15:30:55.537+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='CMMI'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='agile'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='software'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='qualità'/><title type='text'>CMMI e Agile</title><content type='html'>Il Software Engineering Institute (SEI) è un'istituzione finanziata dal governo e da grandi aziende USA. Nei corsi che tengo sono solito raccomandare il &lt;a href="http://www.sei.cmu.edu/"&gt;sito&lt;/a&gt; del SEI come una delle fonti più autorevoli di documentazione sulle tematiche dello sviluppo software. Documenti di alta qualità, e gratuiti.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tra le altre cose, il SEI è noto per aver creato il CMMI-SW (Capability Maturity Model Integration), un modello per la valutazione del grado di maturità delle organizzazioni che sviluppano software. Modello applicato dal governo americano e da molte organizzazioni internazionali per selezionare i propri fornitori nello sviluppo software.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Il CMMI-SW è spesso ritenuto, a torto, come un modello che porta a burocratizzare lo sviluppo, pesante e con effetti negativi sulla produttività e sulla flessibilità. Può essere applicato così, è vero. Ma pesantezza e burocrazia non sono affatto insite nel modello, bensì sono causate da chi lo interpreta in modo superficiale.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Una recente pubblicazione del SEI, "&lt;a href="http://www.sei.cmu.edu/publications/documents/08.reports/08tn003.html"&gt;CMMI or Agile: Why Not Embrace Both!&lt;/a&gt;" evidenzia la compatibilità del CMMI con gli approcci agili.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32688906-4168975173150700673?l=acomai.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://acomai.blogspot.com/feeds/4168975173150700673/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=32688906&amp;postID=4168975173150700673' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32688906/posts/default/4168975173150700673'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32688906/posts/default/4168975173150700673'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://acomai.blogspot.com/2008/11/cmmi-e-agile.html' title='CMMI e Agile'/><author><name>Adriano Comai</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
