Estimation & Invention We simply can't estimate by the minute. Some teams estimate by days and is more often wrong then right. There are simply too many facts not controllable by a project manager to give an estimate by minute a meaning.
More Agility in Offshore Outsourcing
We are moving forward everyday. And one of the biggest factor in this economy today is to save on cost from all possible angles and come out as a winner. Despite some major bans and threats to offshore outsourcing business, things are moving forward. And they are moving forward in a better way for the ailing economy to forsee profits and bring in some hope. Any busines today wants to save on its expenses. Money saved is money earned. No one will spend $100 when they can get the same work and quality off $20 or even less at times. The difference between here and there is not even a mile away when it comes to communication and exchange of information keeping the physical distance apart.
Open Source Software, GPL & Beyond
When I heard about open source software back in my college days, it was an all exciting news for me. Open source softwares have been a delight to the developing community and now companies like IBM, and Sun Microsystems are not keeping away from it either. Many large and small corporations feel the advantage of an open source environment and building open source projects and providing solutions thereof.
Agile Project Management
It was a delightful experience to hear Scott Ambler speak about Agile Methods and Techniques at the Xerox PARC in the heart of Sillicon Valley. And surely he popped different ideas of "the" traditional approach towards a more "agile" approach in management of the project. Does it means we do it fast and try to get rid of it? ASAP. Well surely there is still a long way to go. There is still a long debate about what goes in managing the project so perfectly.
Outsourcing KING of the World!
From the land of GOLD and FREEDOM and HERITAGE and CULTURE! No one in the west actually thought of the east when we were running into the industrial 20th century. But by the end of the century and the begining of 21st century everyone got startled and things changed and they changed for good. An new word was re-invented for the resource-and-cost-saving-hungry information technology world - OUTSOURCING.
Health Care. New Methods. New Ways.
My recent paper focuses on e-Health Care. The focus today is not how good a Health Care service is but also how fast and efficiently that service is delivered to the end customer - the patient in this case. This in other terms also means how less of the overhead is the health-care organization is able to keep. Cutting all the jargon puzzle - the bottom line is despite all the complicated forms processing and keeping piles and piles of paper work how the health-care office is managed efficiently and with ease. Where all the information is available on the click of the button to the various departments without getting bombarded with information overload or even lack of sufficient information in other cases.

DEFINE. MARKET. SOFTWARE. INTEGRATION. TODAY.
In the far competing market today we are crowded by thousands of small and medium sized companies. Things are pretty tough with the investment-hungry-crowds scattered around the various networks of business circles. The software industry is tighter than ever. The so-called-high-technology professionals are lying down low, accepting the challenge. The market today is not driven by mere h-o-o-p-l-a-h-s-a-n-d-u-h-s-a-n-d-a-h-s-o-f-t-e-c-h-n-o-l-o-g-y. Its driven by t-h-e-f-a-c-t-s. The reality is bitter than what it was couple of years ago. Things have changed. People have become more sane in accepting and knowing technology. They have become more realistic in knowing what's that which stands in their way in knowing the exact implementation of a certain technology. And most of all concerns about high ROI and low TCO.
OUTSOURCING. PROCESS. METHODS. MODELS.
What's the ideal path to outsource? The best way to go is outsource those efforts that are clearly defined and not abstract. Outsourcing is all about following a more formal approach to software development.
