Why Software Release Planning is Important?

Why Software Release Planning is Important?

To avoid costly failures and achieve your organization’s desired goals, it is important to invest in a solid release management process. There is no place for half-baked releases in this ever-changing, constantly developing digital world. It is important to mention here that 75% of problems result from modifications in the software or its environment.

Today, in this blog, we are going to discuss what software release planning is, why it is so important at every stage of development, and what are the essential steps for a successful software release.

What is a Software Release Planning?

According to the ISO/IEC 20000 standard, a release is a set of one or more new or changed services or service components deployed to production as a result of one or more modifications.

Software release means that now customers can easily access the services and functions. It is worth mentioning here that release management is a business rather than a technical responsibility. This is because release planning decisions can put major effects on revenue or portfolio management business strategy.

Why Software Release Plan is important?

The software release plan helps any organization to set and clarify goals including product goals that match the needs of both the business and target audience. Release planning is the time when the development team evaluates the required workload.

Software Release Plan helps you to complete the general list of features and makes it convenient for any company to decide when each of them should be released. One thing that is important to mention here is that your plan should take into account the time and budget aspects of the product development process.

Types of Releases

There are three types of software releases in release management

  • Major
  • Minor
  • Emergency.

These different types of software releases help any company to manage how it can update and maintain its software better.

In major software releases, we make changes to existing features or additions of entirely new features to the software. Most of them fix problems from the previous software version. While Minor Software Releases include minor bug fixes and make improvements. In order to provide large-scale point updates, such improvements and issues are typically installed on top of major releases. On the other hand, emergency includes bug fixing. It also resolves the issues in software applications that slow down their performance.

5 Critical Stages for the Right Organization & Implementation of a Successful Software Release:

There are five stages of a successful software release that include Planning, building, testing, preparing, and deploying. Each stage is critical for a successful software release.

Planning is the first stage which includes writing a business case and building a work breakdown structure to match the project dependencies.

The second step is to start building the software where the goals should be assigned to stakeholders, and information about the project should already be clear.

The third stage is the critical one and that is testing which is essential to ensure the product works correctly and is ready to run.

The fourth stage is preparing. At this stage, your team should complete the required changes and functionality optimizations. It is important to check here that each piece of software is working properly and is ready to run.

The final step in releasing software is Deployment. It is the process of bringing the original idea of the software to life. Which means bringing functionality into the real world.

HEC Encourages Universities to Avail Qualcomm University Free 5G Training Program

HEC Encourages Universities to Avail Qualcomm University Free 5G Training Program

Higher Education Commission of Pakistan strives to overcome the gap between industry and academia to produce skilled work force in the market. Therefore, HEC has over the past few years approached industry partners to contribute to the development of industry led programs. In this regard HEC has initiated a program in collaboration with Central Asian Cellular Forum (CACF) and Qualcomm Wireless Academy (QWA) to deliver free 5G training program for the university’s students.

5G revolution is opening doors to new ways of improving public safety. Reliable, super-fast speeds, massive bandwidth, and low latency would greatly aid public safety officials in doing their jobs more efficiently. But it is not possible to get the full advantage of 5G technology without attaining in-depth knowledge of it.

HEC Encourages Universities to Avail Qualcomm University Free 5G Training Program

Dr. Shaista Sohail (Executive Director) HEC who initiated this venture has earlier held meeting at Islamabad Chamber of Commerce & Industry with Central Asian Cellular Forum that was attended by HEC members, Industry scientists and Academia persons (from different universities).  The objective of the meeting was to reduce the gap between industry and academia explained by Dr. Shaista Sohail.  She further said due to the dearth of collaborations between industry and academia, it has been observed that students are losing chances to avail all the great available opportunities in the market as they lack the required skill set. Moreover, it has also been noticed that the faculty of most universities is highly qualified but due to limited or no exposure to the current industry trends, they are unable to cover the practical details that can assist the students to attain essential skill set as demanded by the industry. The faculty focuses more on theoretical aspects and due to that, universities deliver less skilled workforce who is unable to match industry requirements and trends-she explained.

Realizing the fact that 5G technology is expanding rapidly across the globe and there is huge requirement of 5G enabled Wireless Engineers and Technicians, Higher Education Commission of Pakistan has joined hands with Central Asian Cellular Forum in collaboration with Qualcomm Wireless Academy (QWA) and has issued letter to all universities in Pakistan for taking advantage of the 5G courses being offered by Qualcomm Wireless Academy.

AI Needs to Regulate in Health Care Industry

AI Needs to Regulate in Health Care: Policy Experts

There is a dire need to implement the policies in order to regulate artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) across every sector of the health care industry. It was highlighted by Brian Scarpelli (the senior global policy counsel for the Connected Health Initiative) and Sebastian Holst (principal with Qi-fense, a consulting group that works in AI and ML) during their presentation titled “A modest proposal for AI regulation in healthcare,” held during the HIMSS22 Global Health Conference in Orlando.

According Scarpelli and Holst, “ML properties do more than challenge domain-specific applications of technology. Many of these properties will force an evaluation and retooling of core manufacturing, quality, and risk frameworks that have effectively served as the foundation of today’s industry-specific regulations and policies.”

AI Needs to Regulate in Health Care Industry

They further highlighted that AI has a great potential to revolutionize health care in all facets. Plus, it can potentially reduce administrative burdens for providers and payer and allow for resources to be deployed within a health system to serve vulnerable patient populations.

AI has the power to manage public health emergencies like the COVID-19 pandemic as well as can improve both preventive care and diagnostic efficiency.

AI Needs to Regulate:

As AI is becoming frequent buzz phrase in today’s fast-faced world, so there is a need to address the potential legal and ethical challenges. According to Tania M. Martin-Mercado, MS, MPH, a clinical researcher who presented on “How implicit bias affects AI in healthcare, ”One of the major themes of the HIMSS22 conference has been the challenge of achieving health equity and eliminating implicit bias. That’s one of the major challenges of AI as well since AI solutions can be biased. Many sessions focused on how diverse teams are needed when creating AI solutions to ensure that the programs don’t carry the same biases as society, which could exacerbate current social problems.” During the presentation, she pointed to an example of “an online tool that estimates risk of breast cancer calculates a lower risk for Black or Latinx women than White even when every other risk factor is identical.”

Scarpelli highlighted the vision for successful AI should follow four principals such as to enhance access to health care, empower patients to manage their own health, strengthen the relationship patients have with their health care teams and reduce administrative and cognitive burdens for both physicians and patients.
