SUMMARY:Six Sigma in Financial Software by Sheree Revilla
DESCRIPTION:Sheree Revilla will show us how Six Sigma practices can be
  applied to software.  Six Sigma has revolutionized quality in the ma
 nufacturing arena, and it earns its practioners Green Belts and Black 
 Belts.\nAfter an introduction to Six Sigma, we will see some applicati
 ons of Six Sigma in IT areas.\nWe will also see how Six Sigma converge
 s with CMMI. ( \"CMMI - Part 2\" is the topic of the AgilePhilly - SPI
 N meeting on May 8th.)\nThere will be lots of samples of how these met
 hodologies have changed the practice of building critical financial so
 ftware.\n \nAnd at the end of  the night, when you are asked how the
  drive to the meeting was, you can answer “I estimated between 45min
 -1hr, so given the \"variability\" of the travel \"cycle time\", this 
 showed a process not \"in Control\", hence my extra lead time was nece
 ssary in the event of accidents or \"special causes\".  But I can see
  if this is just an outlier data point in our collection.” \n = = =
