Persons who are interested in the agile meth ods\, software process management\, and/or the interaction of agile and di scipline.\n\nWHAT ARE THE KEY BENEFITS? Learning about agile methods and d isciplined processes.\n\nAgile methods have been touted as the programming methodologies of choice for the high-speed\, volatile world of Internet a nd Web software development. They have also been criticized as just anothe r disguise for undisciplined hacking. The reality depends on the fidelity to the agile philosophy with which these methodologies are implemented and the appropriateness of the implementation for the application environment . Extreme Programming\, Scrum\, and similar agile methods are disciplined processes that incorporate good engineer and management practices\, albeit with extreme implementations tailored to a specific kind of environment. Many of the challenges to agile methods arise from considering how they wo uld fit in different environments\; the degree to which agile methods can be adapted without losing their emergent properties is passionately debate d. The compatibility of agile methodologies with process improvement frame works\, such as CMMI for Development\, is summarized and critiqued\, with the conclusion that appropriately implemented agile methods can be useful additions to an organization's set of standard processes.\n\nCo-sponsored by: Project Management Institute of Long Island\n\nSpeaker(s): Dr. Mark Pa ulk\, \n\nAgenda: \n6:00pm - Door open\, small dinner\, networking\n\n6:30 pm - Presentation begins\, Q&A to follow\n\n8:30pm - Event concludes\n\nTh is event is open to all and FREE for all\, but pre-registration is require d.
