I would like to share the slides I used in a talk on agile development. I gave the talk on last July, as part of the Preparatic weekly sessions. I really enjoyed it. The people received the lecture very well and many people participated with questions and opinions making the session much more interesting.

Here it is the last version of the presentation I used in the Agile Development and Rails courses I taught in the University of Oviedo (HCI-RG group). They correspond to a 6 hours-class (the whole course was one week length). It is a very short duration to introduce both the agile development approach and the rails platform so I had to leave out many things. I was very interested in the part of basic good development practices because I think these are easy to learn and very worthy for everyone.

In 2006 I got a FICYT Research Grant in Software Engineering. As the results of my research I wrote a document I would like to share. Since it was written three years ago it is quite outdated but perhaps somebody can find it useful.
The report shows very well my evolution during the research period. First, I was very interested in evaluating the possibilities of UML for specifying software formally. As result there is a very long chapter on the foundations of the language. Then I learned the benefits of the multi-DSL proposal (and the inconveniences of the UML-centric one), and the basics on model to model transformations and formal languages definition through their metamodels, and I focused my research on these topics.

There are some stuff I would like to share online. It may be useful for someone and is totally useless in my hard drive. Perhaps in the future I will create a downloads page or something similar. For now, I will collect these things in a Downloads Category in the blog.
One of the things I would like to share are the slides of the courses I have taught in the past years. This one is the last version of the Accesibility part I have been teaching in several of the HCI-RG courses on Human Computer Interaction.
The slides are mainly focused in the 1.0 version of the WCAG. It also contains an introduction to the 2.0 version and AJAX related issues. They were created using the HTML Slidy System so you can view them in the browser.
