Let me be brief. I played for 35 years and hooked for 30. Scrums are more dangerous than they need to be. With a pointed or convex pressure point they try to jam the hooker farther into the tunnel than needed.
Disperse that pressure point across the front row and give the hooker the ability to operate freely and support himself and his props. He can be under the second row push or raise his rear bumper if he prefers to engage them.

Great article, but note that the first link in it, the one to “Primavera Success Story,” is currently broken.

I’d be particularly interested in knowing what the right link was, as I have recently attended ScrumMaster training with Bob Schatz, who was a key player in the Primavera story.

Thanks,
Scott

Great post! I was just looking for some case studies to help convince others in my organization that scrum and iterative/agile development can be applied to a number of different scenarios.

Nice list of articles. Thank you.

I need a case study that shows how micro-processor hardware design has been successful using Scrum. We are embarking on blazing that trail but would love to see someone else’s trail to help us.

At the least a case study of how the Scrum software team interacted as agile as possible with hardware designers. Even that would be great.

The documents from Nancy Van such as the “Embedded Agile: A Case Study In Numbers” paper you cite are VERY good. But, they focus on the agile practices of a software only team, not the hardware designers or hardware-software designer interaction.

If someone has something to share along these lines, please speak up!
