Building great software requires outstanding teamwork across multiple disciplines. All teams and participants need to align behind clear goals that deliver real value (outcomes)not just lots of features (output). Sprint Goals are the most powerful tool Scrum/Agile teams have to pursue high-value outcomes, but many Scrum Teams avoid them, misuse them, or struggle to apply them. Succeeding with Sprint Goals covers all you need to define, create, and execute on sprint goals that deliver outstanding value to customers and the business.Leading Scrum practitioner Maarten Dalmijn bridges the gap between theory and practice, offering a fresh, unique, and cohesive perspective on the Scrum framework that will be valuable to every product owner, product manager, Scrum Master, agile coach, and technology executive. Students will learn why Sprint Goals are so important, how to use them throughout the sprint and at review and retrospective; how to overcome common obstacles to success; and how to use them to build high-performing teams.As Dalmijn presents critical Scrum and product management fundamentals through the lens of the Sprint Goal, he helps you move your entire organization from low-value "feature factories" to high-value outcomes.

A Designer's Guide to Creating Realistic 3D Experiences For Extended Reality Designing Immersive 3D Experiences helps visual design students move into the fast-growing fields of 3D and extended reality (XR) design. Author Ren+¬e Stevens (Powered by Design) introduces a proven approach and an effective design-thinking process they can use to create successful immersive user experiences.

How to Write Code You're Proud of . . . Every Single Day". . . [A] timely and humble reminder of the ever-increasing complexity of our programmatic world and how we owe it to the legacy of humankind--and to ourselves--to practice ethical development. Take your time reading Clean Craftsmanship. . . . Keep this book on your go-to bookshelf. Let this book be your old friend--your Uncle Bob, your guide--as you make your way through this world with curiosity and courage."--From the Foreword by Stacia Heimgartner Viscardi, CST & Agile MentorIn Clean Craftsmanship, the legendary Robert C. Martin ("Uncle Bob") has written the principles that define the profession--and the craft--of software development. Uncle Bob brings together the disciplines, standards, and ethics you need to deliver robust, effective code and to be proud of all the software you write.Robert Martin, the best-selling author of Clean Code, provides a pragmatic, technical, and prescriptive guide to the foundational disciplines of software craftsmanship. He discusses standards, showing how the world's expectations of developers often differ from their own and helping you bring the two in sync. Bob concludes with the ethics of the programming profession, describing the fundamental promises all developers should make to their colleagues, their users, and, above all, themselves.With Uncle Bobs insights, all programmers and their managers can consistently deliver code that builds trust instead of undermining it--trust among users and throughout societies that depend on software for their survival.Moving towards the "north star" of true software craftsmanship: the state of knowing how to program wellPractical, specific guidance for applying five core disciplines: test-driven development, refactoring, simple design,collaborative programming, and acceptance testsHow developers and teams can promote productivity, quality, and courageThe true meaning of integrity and teamwork among programmers, and ten specific commitments every software professional should makeRegister your book for convenient access to the book's companion videos, updates, and/or corrections as they become available.

In Synchronizing 5G Mobile Networks, three leading Cisco mobile networking technology experts thoroughly address the implementation and characterization of several synchronization standards, presenting practical deployment methods, realistic case studies, and well-tested design best practices. They help engineers and network architects understand the definitions captured in contemporary synchronization standards and apply them to design deployable solutions. The authors provide in-depth discussions of key synchronization protocols and profiles including: Synchronous Ethernet standards (G.8262, G.8262.1), 1588v2 Telecom profiles, Precision Time Protocol (PTP) profiles (G.8275.1, G.8275.2), PTP performance profile (G.8273.2), Time sensitive networking (IEEE 802.1CM), GPS or GNSS or PRTC requirements as part of G.8272.x, and security requirements for synchronization protocols. They evaluate the design principle of each profile and performance standard, explains its application in 5G Mobility and Ultra Reliable Low Latency Communications (uRLLC), and help you choose right profiles or protocols for your environment. Detail sections cover network design and migration guidelines, test methodologies and operations and management practices, to help you successfully deploy time synchronization over converged IP networks.
