]]> This morning I presented my “Lessons Learned” workshop at ITARC 2015 in Stockholm, Sweden. This session had previously been presented at Netponto, and was improved with more content targeted at software architects and also updated with more current information. The goal of the workshop (3,5 hours!) is to share experiences and discuss approaches in developing complex software projects. I had great feedback from the participants, and provocative and relevant questions.

One issue that did come up is the definition of “Large”: this was a large project for Portugal’s standards, plus it was complex and took a long time until release. But for local Swedish standards, it wasn’t that “large” Smile. Even so, the contents are general enough to be interesting, or so I was told. Also it was interesting to learn about some cultural differences between Portugal and Sweden – and those were much less than would be expected.

Great session, loved doing it. Here’s the slidedeck, for those interested.

]]> Tomorrow I’ll be redoing my Software Estimation presentation at SharePoint’s Community. This presentation started with an invitation to present on this topic from one of our customers, and evolved into a general presentation on Software Estimation and the techniques Create It uses. I delivered it last year at Netponto, this year is SharePoint’s Community turn with an updated version :).

There’s more information about the event here.

Update: you can find the slides here. The video of the previous delivery of the session at Netponto is here (note: contents in Portuguese). As to the session on Saturday, the topic always raises lots of interest and conversations, and this was no exception. I n my view, this topic should be studied in CompSci courses.
