description
Conway's Law is a simple statement "Any organization that designs a system (defined broadly) will produce a design whose structure is a copy of the organization's communication structure." Come to this session to reflect on the implications of Conway's Law for software development. We'd like to explore ideas on how we should organise software developers working on a large code base and what ways can we adapt communications within and between teams to improve system design.
