Please recall that there will be an interesting industry presentation given during the first two hours of the lecture on Thursday (03 Nov 2011) given by Bente Anda (Skatteetaten) on the topic "SPI at Skatteetaten (Cost Estimation)"

The third hour of the lecture on Thursday this week will be dedicated to the project. I will give general feedback on the draft reports.

I have also come up with a tentative schedule for the Oral Exams on December 15 and 16. You find the schedule under folder oral-exam

The organisers of Smidig 2011 (Agile 2011) in Oslo offer students a conference fee for only 500 NOK, which includes dinner. If a student volunteers to do some work, they can get it for free. The following link says deadline for student fee is 14 October but we were told that it's valid as long as the link works:

Hi, those of you who didn't attend yesterday's lecture (Lecture 06), please have a look at handout #7 with exercises/homework related to measurement and GQM. During yesterday's exercise session, we looked at exercise B and started with C.1. Doing exercise A and the rest of exercise C is homework until next week. If time allows, we will look at the homework exercises during the 3rd hour of next week's lecture (Lecture 07). Thus, it would be good if everybody had a look at the exercises (in particular those who didn't attend Lecture 6).

Thanks to all of you who presented yesterdy or at least sent your presentations. I have now uploaded all presentations that I received. You find them in the folder undervisningsmateriale/presentations.

Hi, for your presentations next week (06 Oct), please have a look at the slides of Lecture 05 in folder undervisningsmateriale/lecture-notes. There you will find your name and the hour in which you should give your presentation. Please provide information about the following:

  • Context of your improvement project
  • Issues the trigger your improvement project
  • Goals you want to achieve with your improvement project
If you have initial ideas on what to change in order to achieve the goal(s) please mention them briefly. Recall that each student has only 5 min time (incl. discussion/feedback and switching to next speaker). Thus, it is important that you don't use more than 4 min (3 min preferred!) for your presentation. It is also a good idea to send me your slides at least one day before 06 Oct so I a can upload them on my computer before the lecture starts. This will save us time when switching from one...
