However, little attention has been paid to understand difficulties and challenges involved in implementing SPI programs in developing countries like Vietnam and Malaysia, which are emerging as key players in the context of GSD. This paper presents findings from an empirical study aimed at exploring practitioners' experiences and perceptions of different aspects of implementing SPI initiatives. Face-to-face meeting sessions were conducted with twenty-three software development practitioners from eight Vietnamese software development organisations, which were involved in software outsourcing contracts and had initiated SPI programs. The results provide interesting insights into different aspects of SPI initiatives. We expect that the findings can provide some advice to SPI practitioners on what needs to be addressed when developing SPI implementation initiatives in countries like Vietnam.","PeriodicalId":340054,"journal":{"name":"2008 IEEE International Conference on Global Software Engineering","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-08-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125208531","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}

One of the key challenges is coordination of the development work. Study asserts that a good understanding of coordination difficulties can help devise strategies to overcome them. The aim of this PhD study is to explore and understand the use of different coordinating mechanisms to coordinate GSD projects while using agile software development practices.","PeriodicalId":340054,"journal":{"name":"2008 IEEE International Conference on Global Software Engineering","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-08-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125856108","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}

In distributed projects, physical distance between group members limits their face-to-face interaction and thus sets special challenges to communication, which is essential for creating good relations between group members. The goal of this qualitative study is to develop understanding of the importance of social processes and group relations in globally distributed software development, by utilizing literature and earlier research both from software engineering and social sciences.","PeriodicalId":340054,"journal":{"name":"2008 IEEE International Conference on Global Software Engineering","volume":"34 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-08-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126881179","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}

We strove to understand these models by empirically examining synchronous communication within distributed and collocated teams at a large Fortune 500 organization. Our data imply that the overhead for tool support of synchronous communication for distributed teams are generally unacceptably high and that collocated teams are as likely to employ alternatives to face-to-face communication with collocated team members as distributed. Data also imply that communication patterns and models for both distributed and collocated teams evolve naturally over time to meet needs as opposed to a well-defined process delineated at project inception. Finally, data imply that communication models tend to be hybrids of existing communication models, suggesting a continual evolution of team communications over time. These implications collectively suggest that developers are adapting to collaborating with remote team members within this organization, perhaps realizing a new stage of evolution within the software engineering community.","PeriodicalId":340054,"journal":{"name":"2008 IEEE International Conference on Global Software Engineering","volume":"47 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-08-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127846364","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 significant outsourcing failure rates have also been reported. One of the major issues in outsourcing business is that many organisations undertake software outsourcing initiatives without knowing whether or not they are ready to undertake them. The objective of this project is to develop a readiness model in order to measure the organisationpsilas (vendor) readiness for software development outsourcing. Two types of data will be collected in this research project: firstly, factors that can have a positive or negative impact on software outsourcing clients in the selection of software development outsourcing vendors; and secondly, how one can implement these factors. The anticipated outcome of this project will be a software outsourcing readiness model to assist software practitioners in the design of effective software outsourcing strategies. This model should assist outsourcing vendors in measuring the strength or weakness of software outsourcing activities.","PeriodicalId":340054,"journal":{"name":"2008 IEEE International Conference on Global Software Engineering","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-08-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133218206","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}

Case study reports on the successful use of agile practices in small distributed projects already exist. How these practices could be applied to larger projects, however, remains unstudied. This paper reports a case study on agile practices in a 40- person development organization distributed between Norway and Malaysia. Based on seven interviews in the development organization, we describe how Scrum practices were successfully applied, e.g., using teleconference and Web cameras for daily scrum meetings, synchronized 4- week sprints and weekly scrum-of-scrums. Additional agility supporting practices for distributed projects were identified, e.g., frequent visits, unofficial distributed meetings and annual gatherings are described.","PeriodicalId":340054,"journal":{"name":"2008 IEEE International Conference on Global Software Engineering","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-08-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131400066","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}

Software components may be available in-house or acquired from the global market. One of the most critical activities in this reuse based process is the selection of appropriate components. Component evaluation is the core of the component selection process. Component quality models have been proposed to decide upon a criterion against which candidate components can be evaluated and then compared. But none is complete enough to carry out the evaluation. It is advocated that component users need not bother about the internal details of the components. But we believe that complexity of the internal structure of the component can help estimating the effort related to evolution of the component. In our ongoing research, we are focusing on quality of internal design of a software component and its relationship to the external quality attributes of the component.","PeriodicalId":340054,"journal":{"name":"2008 IEEE International Conference on Global Software Engineering","volume":"61 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-08-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126577891","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}

SCRUM has become an acceptable path to follow for those companies because it comprises project management as part of its practices. SCRUM has been used with the objective of simplifying project control through simple processes, easy to update documentation and higher team iteration over exhaustive documentation. Instead of investing team effort on producing static documentation, SCRUM proposes to focus on team continuous improvement aiming to add value to business processes. The purpose of this industry report is to describe two projects that experimented SCRUM practices within a globally distributed company. This company has development centers across North America, South America and Asia. This report covers challenges faced by the project teams, strengths and practical recommendations of using SCRUM in a globally distributed environment.","PeriodicalId":340054,"journal":{"name":"2008 IEEE International Conference on Global Software Engineering","volume":"31 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-08-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126115416","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}

We propose a new graphical model named Distributed Scenario Graph (D-SG) to integrate the distributed sequence diagrams to have an overall system view. It is a hierarchical graph that models information regarding interleaving of sequence diagrams of regional and common use cases. We also propose a metrics named Optimum Scenario Paths (OSP) that measures the minimum number of independent paths in the D-Scenario Graph for a particular region as well as for the entire system. Our model will help in identifying the minimum number of test cases required for region specific testing and also gives a measure of the complexity of use cases for any region.","PeriodicalId":340054,"journal":{"name":"2008 IEEE International Conference on Global Software Engineering","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-08-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131902491","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}
