For Chuck –For Greg Simulation

What is it? Simulation is “how” you design technology for a Human Interface independent of technology constraints Technology Interfaces with Humans on four levels  style: How the Human perceives the technology  behavior: How the Human and Technology interact  data: How Human and Technology collaborate on a concept  logic: How the Technology evaluates concepts/data What does this mean to business owners?  Better Value: From improving Human, Technology interface  Fewer Errors: Familiar looking, behaving technology reinforces concepts the Human already knows What does this mean to PMs?  No Training : Familiar looking, behaving technology reinforces concepts the Project already knows  Precise Communication, Less Meetings : Because it is difficult to misquote a picture Simulation is “how” you design technology for a Human Interface independent of technology constraints Technology Interfaces with Humans on four levels  style: How the Human perceives the technology  behavior: How the Human and Technology interact  data: How Human and Technology collaborate on a concept  logic: How the Technology evaluates concepts/data What does this mean to business owners?  Better Value: From improving Human, Technology interface  Fewer Errors: Familiar looking, behaving technology reinforces concepts the Human already knows What does this mean to PMs?  No Training : Familiar looking, behaving technology reinforces concepts the Project already knows  Precise Communication, Less Meetings : Because it is difficult to misquote a picture

Why do I need this? Model Quality Code Simulate Collaboration Solution Data Business Rules Graphic Design Usability Design in order to

 Modeling Activities 1.Brainstorm Discover reusable requirements/standards 2.Simulate a.Business Rules b.User Experience c.Data d.Reusable Components 3.Analyze Engage business and delivery teams early for risk/approval before specifying requirements Definition of Done  Stakeholders agree on a simulation to model for their solution. How will this work? Sprint 0 = 320 Hours Sprint N = 160 Hours  Develop/Deploy Activities 1.Specify Reusable Model Code Components 2.Deploy Reusable Model Code 3.Demo Model Code/Solution Definition of Done  Stakeholders agree that the solution matched the model. "cut 80 percent of implementation time and costs“ model

How will this impact what I’m doing now?  What do I need to do differently?  Engage business and delivery teams early for risk/approval before specifying requirements  Are there constraints to taking this approach, using this tool?  Internet Access  Subject Matter Expertise in the solution being simulated  How does it affect development/delivery?  Delivery/Development risks are identified/addressed in simulated solution instead of in the developed solution Subject Matter Expertise Collaboration Applied Design Visual Design Business Process Data Usability model Develop Reusable code Deliver Reusable Code Issues identified and resolved in the simulation

Devil’s Advocate  I should NOT use irise or simulation if:  I do not have subject matter and simulation expertise  I want to write code or make pictures  What will others say to poke holes in the benefits of doing UI this way  Developers only need “High-level” requirements  The simulation tool is too expensive and the process takes too long  We’ve never done it that way  Play devil’s advocate  Simulation creates code in it’s own framework. You still have to manually defined specifications for your desired solution framework.  I should NOT use irise or simulation if:  I do not have subject matter and simulation expertise  I want to write code or make pictures  What will others say to poke holes in the benefits of doing UI this way  Developers only need “High-level” requirements  The simulation tool is too expensive and the process takes too long  We’ve never done it that way  Play devil’s advocate  Simulation creates code in it’s own framework.
