Scaling Up Incremental Design Reviews: A Tutorial

Abstract

Design reviews are useful tools for architects to identify early software problems, but there are considerations at scale. Today's design review must: handle multiple concurrent activities generating artifacts that result in information overload; avoid impeding project progress by doing risk analysis while the train is moving; and understand that small teams are a big thing and collaborate with them to have an impact. Over the past several years, we have refined an approach to incremental design review with characteristics that help architects deal with these things.
