  • Michael Lester – IBM Telelogic Innovation 2008

    While at the IBM Telelogic User Group in Austin, I had the chance to talk with IBM's Michael Lester, Senior Product Marketing Manager for Focal Point. More so than the core idea of product portfolio management (or, PPM), I ask Michael to tell us how products like Focal Point actually attache dollar signs to things like software all through-out the software life-cycle. That said, we do spend a good chunk of time detailing the inner-workings of a PPM product and [...]

  • Dominic Tavassoli – IBM Telelogic Innovation 2008

    While at the IBM Telelogic User Group meeting in Austin, I had the chance to with Dominic Tavassoli. We spent our time talking about "the software delivery platform." What this means is the collection of processes and tools you'd use to take software from conception, to development, to testing, to release, and back through again. Sort of a "backbone" for the application life-cycle management an organization does. There's also documenting, best practices, and compliance to industry processes and standards to [...]

  • Martin Owen – IBM Telelogic Innovation 2008

    In this video from the 2008 Telelogic user group meeting, I talk with IBM's Martin Owen. The broad-topic is a discuss using Enterprise Architecture and how it relates to "business/IT alignment." The nitty-gritty gets down to oing lots of reporting, metrics, and telling people what you're up to. Here, the important thing is tailoring your communication to your audience – tech-jargon or biz-speak, depending on which one you're addressing. And how to go in and apply this: baby steps, incremental [...]

  • Save Tom’s not tonnes!

    The average European creates 10 tonnes of CO2 per annum. The average American, 20 tonnes. To avert the dangers of Climate Change, we need to drop our CO2 production to 1 tonne per person. Problem: What is 1 tonne of CO2? How do you visualise it? Answer: You don’t! You change the metric. 1 tonne = 1 person’s annual CO2 production. 1 average person. 1 Tom. Because it’s not about saving tonnes, it’s about saving everyone. For example, a 15 [...]
