Re: [epf-dev] Lifecycle diagram revision
|
I agree ... we should have one for "what's it all about?" somewhere in
the core principles...without some nice graphics nobody will ever read
that pages :-)
I will try to think about some simpler sketches for the lifecycle
...using your comments on the work products
thanks for the feedback Bryan

hiho,
I think the first one is a great picture and we should find a place for
it. On the other hand the "lifecycle diagram" (that started this
thread) is the picture above the WBS that is labeled Workflow on the
Lifecycle page. I think this diverges too much from the focus of "what
is the lifecycle?" and instead covers "what's it all about?" Especially
the ones without the phases.
I like the picture though. A lot. Perhaps this is a missing graphic at
the top of the Core Principles page.
Did we add Daily Meetings as a definitive, default characteristic of
applying OpenUP/Basic?
Back to the lifecycle diagram, I think it can have iterations added
somehow. Perhaps just in a more aesthetically pleasing version of what
Steve scrawled or perhaps someone has a more innovative representation.
Though the Lifecycle page does not call it out, WBS elements are
understood to have Work Product Usage in addition to the task-centric
perspective. I'd love for us to get the focus on the ever growing
product in there (as suggested by Scott). Of course we don't have a
Work Product called Product, just the Build. Maybe something like Ana's
ever-growing blocks could fit into the Lifecycle Diagram.
BTW, do we need a side discussion on the Entry State and Exit State and
Deliverable columns on the Work Product Usage? That sounds like
something that could add a little more clarity to the process.

just some ideas ... modified from a picture I saw for something else...
.. I tried to show core principles, some practices inside the iteration
and the phases ... maybe its too much

Hello Everyone
The OpenUP lifecycle diagram bothers me because it does not include
any dramatic visual clue to OpenUP being an iterative process. I've
just sketched a revise diagram and wonder two things:
1) Am I the only one who is concerned the lifecycle diagram does not
dramatically include iterations?
2) Is there someone out there who actually has creative and drawing
talent and is interested in re-drawing this? J
Best regards
Steve
