hiho,

 

I was surfing around looking at some pages relating to the usage of
agile techniques and I came across this very small article
<http://www.computerworld.com/action/article.do?command=viewArticleBasic
&articleId=273413>  referencing the success Sabre is having in applying
an agile process.

 

I was sort of put off by this erroneous-sounding snippet: "Sabre's
approach to agile development draws from other iterative programming
techniques such as UML".  Certainly UML can be an important development
technique applied in iterative development, but I wouldn't casually
reference it as an "iterative programming technique".

 

Anyway, the intriguing quote is this one: "As Sabre began developing a
runtime infrastructure in 2004, project iterations would typically start
with an inception phase - an evaluation of what Sabre's products could
do in a Web services environment - followed by an elaboration phase".
Hmmm, agility and a set of phases starting with inception and then going
on to elaboration.  And usage of UML.  Sounds like a great idea!
