A call is made to re-direct attention and resources toward understanding the true nature of people in software process assessment. The important, possibly crucial role of people at an individual, team-based and organizational level in the assessment process that precedes software process improvement is discussed by considering such factors as the relationship between a person's perception of the software process, the learning process and motivation and using theory and empirical findings published in the literature. It is suggested that the poor recognition of the many human factors may be a major reason why the software process is so difficult to improve. It is argued that the clarification of such important issues will help to achieve a significant step forward in software process assessment and improvement; and lead to significant improvements in quality, satisfaction and performance. In order to systematize our position and future research, several statements are formulated concerning the importance of people.","PeriodicalId":118499,"journal":{"name":"2013 6th International Workshop on Cooperative and Human Aspects of Software Engineering (CHASE)","volume":"9 5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-05-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126180676","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This has led to efforts to adjust these methodologies to enterprise products and complex systems' development, and specifically to combine the requirement of minimalism with the need for well-defined up-front architecture artifacts. Nevertheless, in many cases, architecture is accompanied with extensive documentation that requires significant effort to review and maintain throughout the development lifecycle. This paper presents a case study that aims at identifying difficulties architects and other stakeholders encounter when dealing with architecture documentation in agile development. The findings indicate that the architecture specification document is usually very long, complex, and not self-explanatory. In order to adjust the architecture documentation to the lean and minimal documentation approach of agile processes, we propose a considerably shorter abstract specification document, requiring reduced documentation efforts and resulting in a lean documentation that is easier to review, update, and communicate.","PeriodicalId":118499,"journal":{"name":"2013 6th International Workshop on Cooperative and Human Aspects of Software Engineering (CHASE)","volume":"64 2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-05-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128303587","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the impact of such processes on team collaboration and communication is widely unknown. In this paper, we analyze how the Kanban process aids software team's behaviors - in particular, communication and collaboration. The team under study developed a mobile payment software product in six iterations over seven weeks. The data were collected by a questionnaire, repeated at the end of each iteration. The results indicate that Kanban has a positive effect at the beginning to get the team working together to identify and coordinate the work. Later phases, when the team members have established good rapport among them, the importance for facilitating team collaboration could not be shown. Results also indicate that Kanban helps team members to collectively identify and surface the missing tasks to keep the pace of the development harmonized across the whole team, resulting into increased collaboration. Besides presenting the study and the results, the article gives an outlook on future work.","PeriodicalId":118499,"journal":{"name":"2013 6th International Workshop on Cooperative and Human Aspects of Software Engineering (CHASE)","volume":"44 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-05-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114634102","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Senior developers leaving the team cause a loss of knowledge; on the other hand, new developers need some time to become fully productive. In this paper, we propose to use a wordle to visualize quickly the level of cooperation of the team in the project. Each word is the name of a class; the size of the word depends on the total effort spent by the team on the corresponding class, and the color is determined by the percentage of team working on the class. We applied pre-attentive processing techniques in the designing phase, so that the user can find out quickly those classes requiring high effort of a small part of the team. This information allows to take corrective actions, such as re-allocating some resources. Thus, this visualization can help in mitigating the knowledge loss and the slowing down due to turnover. On the base of our wordle, we describe four possible cases of development activities. A sample application of our visualization, in the context of a multi-developer project, shows concretely its potentials. We checked, through simulations, that the interpretation of our wordles remains the same for color blind users.","PeriodicalId":118499,"journal":{"name":"2013 6th International Workshop on Cooperative and Human Aspects of Software Engineering (CHASE)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-05-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130792302","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although several studies have discussed the topic, little is still known about the impact of trust (or lack of it) in the performance of distributed software projects. In this paper we present initial findings of an empirically informed study that aimed to identify which factors influence positively or negatively one's perceived trustworthiness of others in the project and the impact of such factors on specific project performance measures. Availability, competence, expertise, face-to-face communication, and leadership are among the factors considered to positively influence the development of trust and the consequent achievement of performance metrics. This is a first step on a larger investigation aiming to develop a theoretical model of the impact of trust in the performance of distributed software projects. Such a model can be used by researchers as a reference framework to further investigate the topic and by practitioners to better manage and organize distributed software teams.","PeriodicalId":118499,"journal":{"name":"2013 6th International Workshop on Cooperative and Human Aspects of Software Engineering (CHASE)","volume":"71 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-05-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114614055","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
