Title: Scrum and evolution - what can we learn?
Proposer: matt_turner
Type: Tutorial
Duration: 90 minutes
Description: Draft: The basic thesis is that Scrum is like evolution / dawkins' memetics - continuous evaluation for fitness and picking the best ideas. We evolve the software we make and we evolve the teams we're in. That has its pitfalls, like over-specialisation, etc. I will also draw a parallel to evolutionary algorithms, a meta-heuristic search technique where software programmes are evolved, which i wrote my Master's thesis on.
