Decision Architecture: Building Robust Business and Technology Decisions -- Oregon Enterprise Architects
Roll back
| description |
nil |
→ |
Decision Architecture tackles the tough problem of aligning the best decision-making techniques to the problem at hand and the resources available. It helps structure information to build, vet and reuse critical decisions. It incorporates risk, uncertainty, and stakeholder concerns into business, application and technical decisions.
Decision Architecture matches tried and true decision-support methods to each decision requirement. It extends these methods as needed with state-of-the-art analytical methods and makes the best use of modern team building best practices to enfranchise all stakeholders. It helps organizations build decision repositories so that decisions can be reused.
If you answer yes to any one of the following questions, then this event is for you!
### Does your organization:
• Revisit decisions that were declared final?
• Make team decisions by edict or by the loudest voice?
• Have little confidence in decisions based on uncertain information?
• Not justify, record, or reuse decisions?
• Have projects that are over budget and time with reduced performance?
### Guest Speaker:
[David Ullman](https://www.linkedin.com/profile/view?id=1915422&authType=OPENLINK&authToken=33T_&locale=en_US&srchid=174828481413913730006&srchindex=1&srchtotal=29&trk=vsrp_people_res_name&trkInfo=VSRPsearchId%3A174828481413913730006%2CVSRPtargetId%3A1915422%2CVSRPcmpt%3Aprimary) , Decision Architect, EA Principals

Growing Sales by Defining, Refining and Aligning | CEO Leadership Exchange

Growing Sales – this is the #1 issue that comes up each year in the TAO Member Survey! Please join us on November 11th as our special guest, [Tim Moriarty](http://www.linkedin.com/in/timothypmoriarty) , Senior Sales Executive at [Dell](http://www.dell.com/) and [Apple](http://www.apple.com/) will share two case studies on how those companies were able to define and refine their respective organizations for optimal success in growing sales.
Dell employed a more collaborative approach, using a concept known as “The Triangle”, which aligned all activities around three core company goals. In contrast, Apple utilized a “Stove Pipe”, or top-down, command and control approach where everyone has very narrowly-defined responsibilities. Tim will walk through each of these approaches and give explicit examples of why each approach worked for each of the companies and how these approaches can be applied to different corporate cultures.
In addition, you will have ample time to talk 1:1 with Tim in the TAO Blazer Suite as we conclude the evening watching the Portland Trail Blazers take on the Charlotte Hornets. Space is limited, so register right away!
Event Details:
When: Tuesday, November 11, 2014
Time: 5:00 PM – 9:00 PM
5:00 PM – networking reception in Private Dinning Suite
5:30 PM – moderated discussion in Private Dinning Suite
7:00 PM – Trail Blazer tip-off against Charlotte Hornets in combined suites 56 & 57
Where: Moda Center, Portland, OR
Cost: $95 Members | $125 Nonmembers -- dinner and game included |

TiE Pearl Pitch Club; featuring Colin O'Neill: "Slides That Don't Suck"
Roll back

You've worked hard on the structure of your pitch.
You've practiced your delivery.
But somehow your story is just not engaging people.
Could be it because your slide deck, ... well, kinda sucks?
You are not alone! A lot of entrepreneurs find it hard to resist putting too much information on their slides.
Design is more important than ever - and it's not limited to your product or your website.
The last thing you want, is for your slide deck to be a hindrance instead of a help, in conveying your story in an engaging manner
Are you sure that your slide deck supports and reinforces your message? How about some insights from a consummate user experience and marketing expert?
Come and join us at TiE Pearl Pitch Club, this time featuring a presentation by Colin O'Neill of ISITE Design: "Slides That Don't Suck".
As Vice President of User Experience, Colin is not only an impressive creative talent; he is also a passionate and deeply experienced marketer with a long career, working with customers like IBM, Kodak, Charles Schwab, LinkedIn and Adobe, who knows how to engage and connect.
So, bring your pitches (and your slides)!
We will start the evening with an opportunity to network while enjoying refreshments. Then we will listen to Colin's presentation, after which you can practice your pitches, with (or without) slide decks, to get actionable and valuable feedback from Colin, peers, TiE mentors and other attendees.
Don't miss this - your slide deck, and your pitch, will be all the better for it!
TiE Members: FREE
Public: $25 |

"Inside the Developer's Studio" is a series where Cris Kelly, Director of <a href="www.portlandcodeschool.com" target="_blank">Portland Code School</a>, interviews a dev, or someone in the tech scene, to get to know the guest both personally and professionally. Through the interview, we hear their stories and experiences; we learn from their mistakes and successes; and we learn more about ourselves and our community, as we discover how they arrived in Portland's rousing tech arena, and how they're contributing to it.
Invite your friends and colleagues! Bring your questions and your lunch into our spacious classroom over Wednesday's lunch hour, Noon to 1pm. Q&A opportunities at the end of the interview. |

<p>Welcome to Portland Haskell Office Hours! Bring your projects, or just your excitement for learning.</p> <p>The construction in the Galois offices is finished, so we are able to resume our regular meeting location. As before, the front doors of the building lock at 6pm, so please give me a call at[masked] if you arrive late.</p> <p>We will still be taking feedback on the format of the meetup, the scheduling, and anything else that will help make this a valuable resource for you. If you are not able to attend, let us know if there's anything we can do to help make it work in the future.</p> <p>-- </p> <p>About Haskell Office Hours:</p> <p>Show up with a project you'd like to share or a problem that you're stuck on, and we'll learn together in small, supportive groups! An "Office Hours" meetup is an opportunity for people of all skill levels to come together, learn, and have fun. Our goal is to focus on inclusion and active participation through teaching and mentorship. The meetup is hosted at Galois, which uses Haskell extensively in industry, and is well-attended by Galwegians who are eager to share their excitement for Haskell and functional programming. This group is very new, so you still have an opportunity to shape how we do things. If the schedule doesn't work for you, or if we can do anything to help you feel more safe and welcome, let us know!</p> |

Hello Everybody:
We're having an open house for our club. Toastmasters can help you get ready for that tech talk you've been wanting to do.
If you have a fear of speaking publicly our club can help. We meet Monday nights after work over at the Beaverton Activity/Resource Center at Hall and Allen. We start at 6:30pm and end by 8pm. It's a relaxed atmosphere where everyone who wants to can work on their speaking skills.
No need to hide any longer. This will give you the skills you need for your elevator speech or having the courage to speak to that stranger next to you.
Our open house will let you see what happens during a regular club meeting. There are lots of clubs to go to. Our next open house is October 27, 2014, 6:30pm corner of Hall & Allen.
Refreshments will be provided.

Presentations:
Beating Cybercriminals: Preventing Compromise in the Face of Advanced Attacks
Cybercriminals combine social engineering techniques with ongoing application vulnerabilities to install advanced malware on both customer devices to compromise financial accounts and employee devices to compromise corporate networks. Advanced malware effectively bypasses authentication technologies and readily evades anti-virus applications. New endpoint solutions have emerged that have some merit, typically with a narrow focus on a single threat vector, but none have proven effective at stopping dynamic threats, and most of these approaches come with a very high operational cost. A new approach to cybercrime protection and preventing compromise is desperately needed.
This presentation will provide an overview of:
· The methods cybercriminals use to successfully install advanced malware on endpoint devices
· The most recent fraud cybercrime developments and compromise techniques uncovered by Trusteer research
· New approaches available to mitigate the increase risk from endpoint devices
· Case studies of actual cybercrime prevention results
· Demonstration of preventing different advanced attack scenarios
Presented by Christopher Beier - Sr. Product Marketing Manager for IBM/Trusteer. Christopher brings impressive security DNA through his almost 20 years’ experience working for both Symantec, and McAfee. Christopher has deep knowledge and experience in the financial services and online banking security with 5 years as a technical product manager at Fiserv. He is also a 12 year US Navy veteran where he applied IT administration skills to the US submarine corp. Christopher presented on advanced malware issues at Black Hat USA 2014.
Staying Ahead of the Malware Curve
Over the last five years the threat curve for dealing with advanced attackers and malware has changed significantly. Keeping ahead of signature updates used to be the battleground, but the escalating arms race has moved on to staying ahead of whitelisting, reputational, and dynamic analysis capabilities—and the people we truly care about keeping out of networks are gaining traction once again. Worse still, these capabilities are moving down the threat curve at an accelerating pace, meaning anyone has the potential to acquire these capabilities. Many in our ranks have given up on keeping our adversaries out of our ranks and instead focused on rapid detection. Though no silver bullet exists in our toolbox, there are new solutions that flip the economics to our favor.
This presentation will provide an overview of:
· The methods cybercriminals use to successfully install advanced malware on endpoint devices
· Insight into the evolution of malware attacks, focusing on the new techniques in use today
· Discussion of cutting edge malware delivery platforms
· Demonstration of commodity exploit kits (Blackhole)
· Discussion around endpoint application isolation techniques
· Demonstration of commodity exploit prevention leveraging non-persistent desktop browsing
Presented by Darrin Mourer - Sr. Solution Architect with Invincea specializing in advanced threat prevention, detection, and forensics. He has been involved in the information security space for over 15 years in both information security officer and vendor roles. He has held various certifications including CISSP, CISA, SANS, and ITIL. Previous to Invincea, Darrin spent over 10 years in various sr. level security roles at Symantec.
Panel Discussion – Key Advanced Malware Countermeasures
Following the two presentations, ISSA Portland will provide lunch followed by a moderated panel discussion on key advanced malware countermeasures and practical implementation concepts. The panel will consist of:
Christopher Beier - IBM
Darrin Mourer – Invincea
*Additional local Security Expert Panelists being confirmed

Hack day with uncontext.

Let's get together again and made some art!
After the success of the TUIO Jams, we're going to try the same format for a different project.
[uncontext.](http://uncontext.com), for the uninitiated, is a community art project that creates streams of constantly changing data that is publicly accessible. When you create something that uses the data as it streams live, it will move and update to the same heartbeat that is moving and updating every other creation using the data. So at the end of the day, we'll have a series of experiments and projects that are all pulsing to the same beat.
I'll even be releasing a new data stream at this event!
When you attend, you can create in any way that makes sense to you:
- Javascript/CSS/in the browser experiences
* Processing and/or p5.js
* PixelPusher (we'll have some you can play with!)
* Unity
* Bring your Arduino or Pi or Tessel
* Anything that can connect to the internet!
The space is, as always, provided by the ineffable Instrument. We'll have coffee and **lunch will be provided** by the wonderful team at Codepen, as well as some swag both from sponsors and also generated and printed at the event!
If you want a quick intro to uncontext., [here's a video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9USCdZs-PCM) of a 15 minute introduction presentation crammed into 5 minutes from a couple months ago.
Send [John Brown](mailto:[email protected]) a message if you have any questions! |

Monthly Happy Hour
Roll back

<p>If you're like me, you spend WAYYYY too much time in front of a computer. I think it would be great to have a monthly get together at a bar or pub to just get to know each other, have a brew, and yes, talk about the business. Real human interaction, in other words. Repeats the last Tuesday of every month.</p> <p>Starting September 24th we will be changing venues to Romtoms, on the east side of the bridge at Burnside and 6th St. We hope there will be more room and it will be easier to find the rest of us. We look forward to seeing everyone.</p> <p>If you can't find us inside look for us out in the back we may be enjoying the sunshine and the beautiful open patio.</p> |

Developer: "Fluffy Bunny," the story of refactoring Digital Trends
Roll back

<p>Join the developers of <a href="http://digitaltrends.com/">digitaltrends.com</a> (Richard Benjamin and Brandon Clark) as we share the trials and tribulations of refactoring one of the web's largest WordPress sites.</p> <p>Back in January we started a secret internal project humorously dubbed "Fluffy Bunny". The goal was to overhaul <a href="http://digitaltrends.com/">digitaltrends.com</a> and transform it into something modern that would free us from the chains of a legacy codebase. Six months later we unveiled the Digital Trends 2014 theme (AKA: The Unified Theme) which was a near complete end to end rewrite of not just the theme but also much of the core architecture of the site.</p> <p>This will be a high level talk about our development process and thoughts on writing maintainable and modular code within the context of a major site refactor. We will touch on theme and plugin development, project organization, and a good amount of what we jokingly refer to as "code punditry". Afterwards we will be available for extended questions and answers.</p> |

Why is Your App Slow? And How to Fix It!

<p>Jonathan Karon leads the team that builds New Relic Mobile, the world’s first real time management software for monitoring the performance of mobile apps in production. He is in a unique position to get an industry-wide view on the factors that affect mobile app performance. </p> <p><br>He has seen companies do it well, and not so well, and seen what it takes to transform a balky, slow app into a first-class champion. Join us as he shares the tips and tricks needed to avoid frustrated users, attrition, and bad app store reviews.</p> <p><b>What are the root causes of performance problems?</b></p> <p>Jonathan will discuss the 3 most common causes of app slowness: Network latency & errors, on-device code execution with unexpected data, and waiting for slow hardware features.</p> <p><b>How can you fix them?</b></p> <p>Hear best practices, tips, and tricks for improving the speed of common operations like network requests, database access, image loading, etc. We’ll also review design patterns for accommodating slow subsystems like GPS, camera, and webviews.</p> <p><b>How can you avoid getting trapped by poor performing software?</b></p> <p>The earlier you think about performance bottlenecks and design around them, the less frustration and cost you will face getting your app to market. Jonathan will share a software design methodology rooted in systems modeling that bridges the gap between UX design and source code. You will identify potential bottlenecks in your app before it’s written, have productive conversations with designers about optimal user experience, and spend less time re-designing object models and web APIs.</p> |
