Abstract

Effective risk management contributes to the success of the software development project. The goal of this work was to identify risk management gaps, perspectives, the evolution of the theme and the study trends, in software development projects, using systematic literature review as a method. For the bibliometric analysis, articles referring to the topic were selected in the period from 2010 to 2018. As tools of analysis, Citespace and VOS Viewer software were used, allowing a comparative evaluation between the articles, as well as the analysis of clusters. Beyond content analysis of articles found. Gaps were identified for performance; team involvement; attention to failures; identification of tools for decision-making; and business strategy. In turn, perspectives were determined for research trends, such as the close relationship between business strategy, risk management and new management models. The research can propose new strategies and perspectives for risk management in software development and show their importance to the academic and practical spheres, demonstrating that the themes are complementary and important in the current technological and innovation sector.

软件开发项目中的风险管理:对艺术文献现状的系统回顾

有效的风险管理有助于软件开发项目的成功。这项工作的目标是识别软件开发项目中的风险管理差距、观点、主题的演变和研究趋势，使用系统的文献回顾作为一种方法。为了进行文献计量分析，选择了2010年至2018年期间与该主题相关的文章。作为分析工具，使用了Citespace和VOS Viewer软件，允许文章之间的比较评估，以及集群分析。超出内容分析的文章发现。确定了绩效差距;团队参与;注意失败;确定决策工具;还有商业战略。反过来，研究趋势的观点被确定，如企业战略，风险管理和新的管理模式之间的密切关系。该研究可以为软件开发中的风险管理提出新的策略和观点，并显示其在学术和实践领域的重要性，表明这两个主题在当前的技术和创新领域是互补的和重要的。

期刊介绍： The International Journal of Open Source Software and Processes (IJOSSP) publishes high-quality peer-reviewed and original research articles on the large field of open source software and processes. This wide area entails many intriguing question and facets, including the special development process performed by a large number of geographically dispersed programmers, community issues like coordination and communication, motivations of the participants, and also economic and legal issues. Beyond this topic, open source software is an example of a highly distributed innovation process led by the users. Therefore, many aspects have relevance beyond the realm of software and its development. In this tradition, IJOSSP also publishes papers on these topics. IJOSSP is a multi-disciplinary outlet, and welcomes submissions from all relevant fields of research and applying a multitude of research approaches.
