Project history
Short summary:
2017-2018, Educational Software Startup, Berlin, Zürich
The price of information was very high before the rise of internet. Knowledge was transferred orally through generations. It was saved in expensive books. It was taught in distant learning institutions. Today you have in your hand a device that can reach intellectual gems from the whole world. Unfortunately, the modern pedagogics remains chained with obsolete mindset.
Children and adults who live today in the world of Big Data, artificial intelligence and global information desire new education methods that are free from obsolete restrictions and mistakes, that consider modern findings in psychology and brain research, that stand on the frontier of development of information technologies and computer science.
2014 - 2015, Insurance, Hamburg
Theories help to arrange knowledge. A consultant’s position allows to observe processes from above and to gain an overall view. However, there are details that are invisible unless you descend to the ground level and collect firsthand experience by solving real tasks.
Knowledge and theories that were collected and developed through many years were put to the test by fighting against mysterious errors and unexpected performance bottlenecks in a data warehouse migration project. Effective methods of agile quality management and goal oriented planning were developed, tested and adjusted to actual needs.
2013, Space, Bremen
Satellites are complex mechatronic systems that depend on error free interaction of mechanic, electric, electronic components and control software. They are unique or are developed in limited series. They work in extremal conditions and must be very precisely controlled because small software errors could cause positioning errors of many kilometers or a loss of functionality. Quality requirements are very high because there are no possibilities to repair something in space. Development processes conform to strict norms and are arranged according to a waterfall model. On the other hand, they are fully agile because of permanent adjustments, improvements and error corrections. This is the true rocket science.
ESA has initiated a project to create a universal validation environment that could allow testing of the onboard software on early phases of development and that could be easily adapted to new projects. To achieve these goals the experience of development and usage of satellite simulators was companywide gathered, the requirements specifications from different projects were consolidated, and modern techniques and tools that are used in this specific and complicated industry were collected and analyzed.
