Part VII: Experience and Conclusions

The last part tests the argument against experience. Chapter 30 analyses verified public cases and the anti-patterns they show. Chapter 31 follows named developers in Nordvik Region and Hansa Mutual through a year. Chapter 32 draws conclusions for the two organisations and Chapter 33 judges the thesis.

Chapters in this part:

• Chapter 30, Case Studies and Anti-Patterns, analyses verified cases by mechanism and catalogues anti-patterns.
• Chapter 31, A Year in Development, follows named developers in two organisations through a year.
• Chapter 32, Nordvik Region and Hansa Mutual, draws conclusions and a 12-month plan for each organisation.
• Chapter 33, Conclusion, judges the thesis and gives five things to do on Monday.

Functions in this part. Part VII concludes all five functions.
