Implementing agile methodology in software development

This thesis is based on an actual case of transitioning from a traditional to an agile software development methodology on an enterprise resource planning project, which is being developed in one of Slovenian companies. It describes the problems, that the development team faced with the traditional method and the reasons for transitioning to an agile methodology. It includes brief descriptions of extreme programming and kanban, and a more in depth description of Scrum, which was the chosen methodology for the project. It also describes certain customizations of the method, which were deemed necessary due to specific nature of the project, followed by an analysis of the original problems and how they were affected by the change in methodology. In the end, possible improvements for the future are addressed

Modeling the relationship between physical training and performance in endurance sports

Exercise regimen is an integral part of sports coaching, the goal of which is to improve an individual's athletic performance. In an effort to better understand and optimize athletic performance, exercise physiologists have developed mathematical models of physical training and performance. Banister model and "Training Stress Score", a method to quantify training load have been presented in this thesis. An overview of existing literature has been conducted and Banister model has been tested on training data of six road cyclists. Model's prediction quality has been proven poor and its shortcomings have been exposed during evaluation

Art for all

Cilj urejanja okolja po načelih oblikovanja za vse je zagotoviti, da lahko vsak posameznik ne glede na oviro sodeluje v informacijski družbi. Združuje načela, kako naj bi izdelke, storitve in sisteme uporabljalo čim več ljudi, ne da bi jih bilo treba posebej prilagajati. Zakaj ne bi pojma oblikovanje za vse prenesli na prav vsa področja, recimo tudi na področje umetnosti? V pričujočem članku razmišljamo, kako bi lahko prilagodili likovno umetnino, predvsem dvodimenzionalno, slepemu ali slabovidnemu obiskovalcu galerije ali muzeja, in navajamo, kaj je že narejenega na tem področju. Opisujemo tudi učbenik za pouk likovne umetnosti, prilagojen slepim in slabovidnim učencem.The aim of spatial planning on the principles of "design for all" is to ensure that every individual, regardless of obstacle, can participate in the information society. It combines the principles of how as many people as possible could use products, services and systems without adjusting them. Why should we not transfer the concept of "design for all" also to other areas, such as the field of art? In this article we consider how a work of art, especially a two-dimensional one, could be adapted for blind or visually impaired visitors of a gallery or to a museum, and list what has already been done in this area. We also describe a textbook for teaching fine arts, adapted for blind and partially sighted students

Osmotska komponenta vodnega potenciala in prilagoditev odraslih dobovih sestojev (Quercus robur L.) na sušni stres z različno sestojno gostoto

Pressure volume curves were applied to define differences in stress adaptation between two managed forest complexes and virgin forest remnantin Murska šuma, Krakovo forest and Krakovo old growth forest. Species response between adult stands after stronger thinning and comparable stand without any silvicultural measures within same forest complex was compared in two consecutive years, 2003 and 2004. Significant differences in osmotic potential (full turgor) component for plots in Murska šuma in 2003 as well as in Krakovo forest between managed forest and old growth-forest were confirmed. In all cases, values became more negative, indicating slight capability of oaks to adapt with increasing drought stress. Reaction/stress adaptation of forests after thinning indicated well adapted mechanism to address drought stress in spite of the age. We may connect such improved drought response with increased individual space for growth and lower stand density.Za primerjavo in opredelitev razlik stresnega prilagajanja na sušo odraslih dobovih sestojev smo uporabili P/V-krivuljeprimerjali smo odzive gospodarskega gozda v Murski šumi, v Krakovskem gozdu in pragozdnega rezervata Krakovo kot tudi gospodarska sestoja z različno drevesno gostoto (redčen sestoj, neredčen) v poletnih mesecih 2003 in 2004. Potrdili smo značilne razlike v osmotski komponenti vodnega potenciala pri polnem turgorju med ploskvama Murske šume in Krakovskega gozda. Na vseh ploskvah je bilo opaziti povečevanje osmotske komponente z naraščanjem sušnega stresa. Sestoj po redčenju / uvajanju v obnovo je pokazal dobro oblikovan mehanizem in prilagajanje kljub starosti, najverjetneje zaradi sproščene konkurence in povečanega rastnega prostora
