create Calagator::Event 1250471882 Balancing Business + Usage + Technology Workshop Roll back

description	nil	→	Level up your skills, network with peers, and learn to deliver better products, services, and solutions with this unique workshop from nuCognitive. Product teams and Service designers face unprecedented challenges as business environments and ecosystems become increasingly complex and unpredictable. Customers have tremendous freedom to choose among competing products, and user experience has become a big factor in many purchase decisions. Time-to-market pressure is unrelenting, while product complexity and technical challenges keep increasing. In this environment, businesses must offer solutions that solve the right problem for the right consumer at the right time and the right price. Developing solutions to customer problems is a complex balancing act. Solutions need to be feasible, economically viable, and desirable. In other words, they must balance business, usage, and technology. This course introduces a powerful model called the Three-Circle Model that provides a common vocabulary, conceptual framework, and solution life cycle. Teams and organizations can use these tools to dramatically improve solution effectiveness, shorten time to market, and reduce risk. The right solution, product, and service requirements can be the keys to success in today’s dynamic, often crowded marketplace. Delivering just the features and functions that customers want and need at the right time enables companies to win and keep market share while staying competitive on price. This course introduces a collection of models that help teams and organizations identify, analyze, and deliver product and service requirements. The course covers a flexible, curated group of complementary models that organizations and teams can use to gain valuable insights into what they must deliver, to whom, and in what sequence. Contents -Overview of Solutions - Types and Characteristics -Cynefin Framework -Balanced Solutions With The Three-Circle Model -The Solution Life Cycle -User experience proof points, terms and concepts -Diffusion of Innovations -Applications and Case Studies Who typically attends? Product managers, product owners, product planners, product marketing, business analysts, architects, designers, product engineers, software developers, and involved in discovering, defining, and delivering solutions. This course works exceptionally well in an intact-team setting. By the end of this course, participants should: -Define and apply key terms and concepts for solution, product, and service requirement discovery -Explain and apply several complementary models to discover, analyze, and deliver solutions, products, & services -Apply concepts from diffusion of innovations to refine and improve Minimum Viable Product definition -Know where to find additional information

create Calagator::Event 1250471881 Value-driven Delivery Mini-Workshop Roll back

description	nil	→	Level up your skills, network with peers, and learn to accelerate stakeholder value delivery with this unique workshop from nuCognitive. The first Agile principle is "Our highest priority is to satisfy the customer through early and continuous delivery of valuable software." However, in practice this does not seem to be true nearly as often as it should be. Teams often fail to provide early, frequent delivery of stakeholder value. Instead, they focused on spikes, class libraries, infrastructure, and other inward-focused work, without an understanding of their stakeholders and what they value. As a result, many teams start with what is most familiar, easiest, or most convenient for them rather than what stakeholders value most. Why do teams often become focused on (or even obsessed with) feature development and maximizing development velocity? Without explicit focus on value, the association between velocity, feature development, and value-delivery is weak - perhaps even non-existent. At best, these projects are conducted sub-optimally. Frequently, they fail when stakeholders remove funding because they perceive a lack of value add. Value-driven delivery is achieved using the answers to three simple, but not at all easy, questions: 1. Who are your stakeholders? 2. What do they value? 3. What are you doing in the next two weeks or less to provide value to them? Teams often have many more stakeholders than they first realize. Value-driven Delivery ensures those stakeholders are made explicit, and that the list of stakeholders is kept current throughout the project. Value-driven delivery captures and maintains stakeholder values in a quantified, verifiable way. This ensures that teams can know the real effects of each stakeholder value delivery, and prevents work based on an outdated understanding of value. Value-driven Delivery also challenges teams to sequence deliveries so that they deliver the most valuable things first. This can have tremendous benefits, generating early business results and reducing the time required for the team to get into a positive Return on Investment for the project. Value-driven delivery makes a natural overlay for Scrum, but does not require Scrum's use to be effective. Value-driven delivery does not ignore features and velocity, but it explicitly places value delivery above those things as the top priority. Two other advantages to Value-driven Delivery worth mentioning: First, it is not limited to software, but applies to all aspects of an organization, including the executive suite, human resources, finance, IT, and product teams. Second, it is not focused on or limited to any particular scale. In fact, it is scale-free, working on small teams and teams of more than 500 engineers in a 100K-person company. Learning Outcomes: -The definition and nature of value -The principles and practices of Value-driven Delivery -How to use Evolutionary Delivery to manage value-driven work, alone or in concert with Scrum -Fundamentals of several disciplines and models that aid value-driven work, including the Kano Model, elements from Diffusion of Innovations, UX Proof Points, and the HEART Framework -Attendees will gain enough understanding to begin using Value-driven Delivery in their own work if they desire. -Additional sources of information will be provided for continued learning. Who should attend: Product management, product owners, product developers, service designers, architects, product managers, engineers, business development, business strategy, marketing, planners, project managers, software developers

create Calagator::Event 1250471880 Introduction to Balanced Solutions Mini-Workshop Roll back

description	nil	→	Level up your skills, network with peers, and learn to deliver better products, services, and solutions with this unique workshop from nuCognitive. Developing solutions to customer problems is complex balancing act. Some products fail due to a flawed business model while others are neither desirable nor useful. This workshop invites teams to shift their thinking from developing a product or service to delivering a holistic solution that balances business, usage, and technology. The Three-Circle Model is both a descriptive and a prescriptive approach to develop holistic solutions. It is based on the three fundamental perspectives needed for a balanced and compelling solution; Business, Usage, and Technology. -The Business circle represents the economic viewpoint. A solution must be marketable, profitable, and affordable. -The Usage circle represents the conceptual viewpoint. A solution must be desirable, usable, and useful. -The Technology circle represents the implementation viewpoint. A solution must be manufacturable, functional, and consumable (by the industry and associated ecosystems). These three circles can be arranged in a Venn diagram with overlaps for Value, Capability, and Ingredients. The Three-Circle Model forms a cohesive and consistent taxonomy that can be used by organizations as the basis of a shared vocabulary, thereby reducing misinterpretations and wasteful communication churn. The model is also the underlying architecture for a solution life cycle. Unlike other life cycles with phases that are based on activities (e.g. exploration, planning, development), the solution life cycle’s phases are based on the state of the solution itself. This makes the life cycle activity and method agnostic, so it works with Agile, Lean, traditional, and hybrid approaches. Learning Outcomes: -Describe the three fundamental perspectives of a solutions: Business, Usage, and Technology -Describe the three two-circle overlaps in the model: Value, Capability, and Ingredient -Understand what a balanced solution means -Evaluate a product, service, or solution using the model to locate weaknesses and knowledge gaps -Apply the Three-Circle Model to a solution life cycle -Improve communication among teams using a common vocabulary and taxonomy for solution development -Use the model to diagnose and improve issues in solution development Who should attend: Product management, product owners, product developers, service designers, architects, product managers, engineers, business development, business strategy, marketing, planners, project managers, software developers

description	nil	→	<p>Hello!</p> <p>Thanks to everyone who attended the kickoff meeting for this group. It was a really good turn out and looks like there are a lot of folks excited about learning some Haskell. We have decided at this point to meet on a bi-weekly basis Mondays at 6:30pm. We also have a new venue which has been secured at the OTBC offices thanks to Phil for the referral on that one. We have also decided that we will be going through the online tutorial <a href="https://wespiser.com/writings/wyas/home.html">Write You a Scheme 2.0</a> as our first project. Each person will choose resources on their own to learn Haskell and we will come together as a group in each meeting to talk about our progress on building a scheme interpreter and our understanding of the code presented. Most likely we will also do some Haskell exercises as a group to help solidify new concepts.</p> <p>To prepare for the next meetup go through the introduction and if you have time, the next section on parsers as well. We'll try to cover as much ground as we have time available.</p> <p>We also have a Slack channel that you can join by clicking the link that was sent out on the mailing list. If you need an invite link let me know and I'll get you connected.</p>

He will relate some or many of those things, consistent with what he can manage to remember, or possibly invent on the fly. This could be stretched into a multi-part talk, so if the prospect of listening to him for extended periods is painful to you, consider it an inducement to come up with your own much better talk! Many will head to the Lucky Lab at 1945 NW Quimby St. after the meeting. Rideshares to the Lucky Lab available PLUG is open to everyone and does not tolerate abusive behavior on its mailing lists or at its meetings.

Come join other enthusiasts in the health space to hear how automated authentication from blockchain technology is changing not only behaviors, but the way we look at systems in healthcare. Questions to be answered during this session: What industries are using blockchain technology successfully? What do the next 2-5 years look like for blockchain technology in healthcare? How does blockchain technology remain secure with such wide distribution of data?

description

We'll have pizza & beer starting at 6pm, so stop by early if you want to have dinner and socialize before the presentations. **This month's meeting is on the 27th floor.** ##PRESENTATIONS at 7pm ###Main Presentation: "A Beginner's Guide to Open Source" by Dana Scheider ###Lauren Voswinkel: Conway's Game of Life Code Retreat. "We'll take 30-45 minutes to work on Conway's Game of Life. Pair programming is *highly* encouraged, but is not required. We'll take some time to talk about what we learned during the exercise, as well as what approaches worked and what didn't. The whole idea of this exercise is to have a space and time to actively practice coding." **Please Bring Your Laptops** After presentations we'll have more socializing time. ##**Thanks to New Relic for providing the venue and beer, pizza & snacks this month!** ARRIVING BY BIKE? Cyclists are welcome to park their bikes in the New Relic office. Bikes are not allowed in the building lobby, however, and must use the freight elevator. To get your bike up to the 5th floor, enter the building's parking lot by going down the ramp at 5th and Pine. Go past the booth -- no need to pick up a ticket -- and turn right. Go straight until you almost run into the elevator lobby, then go right again. On the back side of the elevator block you'll see a beat up pair of double doors marked "freight elevator." You can get up by buzzing in with the intercom, and saying you're here for New Relic. Ride on up to the 27th floor, you'll easily find the bike parking. ABOUT THE GROUP: *The Portland Ruby Brigade, also known as pdxruby and pdx.rb, is a user group for Ruby programmers in the Portland, Oregon area. The group welcomes all programmers interested in the language and its implementations, tools, libraries and frameworks, such as Ruby on Rails. The group has been meeting since August 2002 for presentations, demos and discussions. Every month 35-75 people come together to share their knowledge, projects and enthusiasm for Ruby. If you'd like to present or have a topic you'd like discussed, please post to the mailing list. The group usually meets on the first Tuesday of the month, "Ruby Tuesday" -- see you there!*

update Calagator::Event 1250471854 Semantic Data Mining and Deep Learning Datasets @DAMAPDX Roll back

description

Dr. Dejing Dou leads the Advanced Integration and Mining (AIM) Lab at the University of Oregon. In this talk, we focus on the use of formal (Semantic Web) ontologies in two data mining and deep learning tasks, using health datasets as the data domain. We will show how Semantic association mining allowed discovery of indirect (hidden) associations within the datasets (in this case, among diseases and drugs within electronic health records). We will also show how Ontology-based deep learning was used to predict human physical activities within a health social network. For more information and to register: https://damapdx.wordpress.com/2017/04/20/may-2017-semantic-data-mining-deep-learning-in-health-datasets/ <h3>Schedule</h3> 8:30 – 9:00 am – Sign In <br> 9:00 – 10:15 am – Presentation <br> 10:15 – 10:30 am – Break, Chapter Announcements <br> 10:30 – 11:30 am – Presentation continued <h3>Cost</h3> Costs cover continental breakfast and speaker travel costs <br> - Free for Members (and employees of corporate members)<br> - $15 for Non-Members <br> - $5 for Students with valid student ID <br> See our corporate members at the link above <h3>About DAMA Portland </h3> The Portland Metro Chapter of the Data Administration Management Association has been serving the Portland data community since 1984. We are a not-for-profit, vendor independent, professional association dedicated to advancing the concepts and practices of enterprise information and data resource management. Our primary purpose is to promote the understanding, development and practice of managing data, information and knowledge resources as key enterprise assets.
