We are working on a web browser compatibility initiative. Our legacy web applications will need to be enhanced so they can run on multiple browers and devices. Currently, our applications only run on Internet Explorer. We have done some research ourselves into the best methods to use to achieve this goal. Something from Gartner would also be beneficial.

HCJDC would like to get a strong perspective on the topic as we would like to approach OIMT with a decent understanding rather than ignorance in seeking some possible relief. They are looking specifically for pros and cons of a BYOD program why you would keep it or go a different direction, and also looking at what portions of their BYOD policy they could reasonable keep in place with the proper security measures.

We're about two years into our shift from waterfall SDLC to Agile and we've had a lot of success, but the conflict between the short-term, quick-win, deliver-value-now mindset and the longer-term, plan-for-the-future perspective continues (and probably always will). Agile tends to emphasize the former, and although it is recognized that "technical debt" is incurred, that debt is hard to quantify and manage. How can we better understand the pros and cons of incurring such debt, how can we mitigate it, and how can we manage it?

We have another story in our September Sprint dealing with Image Resizing SaaS. In my research, I am finding several Content Management services and products that provide Image Resizing as a function, but my customer is primarily interested in just the resizing of images. Ideally, this customer would like to store master images on the server and then be able to have HTML 5 pages refer to the image via a URL. Based on HTTP headers, the server would (upon recognizing the client software, hardward and version) serve up the appropriate image format, resolution and size for the situation at hand. Again referring to my research, I have found offerings that require the page developer to specify resolution, format and size information (embedded in the URL), but my customer would prefer for these sorts of decisions to be made based on HTTP header information.

What we don't have plans for, though, is how to handle the mobile needs of our audiences. I would like to develop a mobile strategy for our group in the coming year, but I'm not quite sure where to start. Would you know if there are guides on how to develop a mobile strategy in your research library? Are there maybe examples of mobile strategies for other organizations like ours? At this point, I'm mainly interested in a mobile strategy from the perspective of getting useful information in the hands of our audiences
