Companies also provide GSD training especially to new recruits who might lack skills in how to effectively communicate with people from different cultures and different first languages. However this training is costly and not necessarily tailored to the specific needs of the organization or individual practitioner. With a focus on GSD education, we have developed a training framework based on simulation that addresses different kinds of GSD problems. The framework allows course leaders to design training scenarios to fit their precise needs for improved communication and cultural awareness. This paper presents a market-focused study aimed at discovering the requirements for a commercial GSD education tool. We studied the market options, identified key stakeholders, and conducted interviews with senior managers from three multinational companies. The study helped us to gain a deeper understanding of current training trends, needs and gaps according to key stakeholders. Finally, outcomes provided us with directions for future tool development. Results indicate that industry find cultural differences a more pressing problem than linguistic differences. Although industry tends to use traditional (classroom based) training methods for raising cultural awareness, they perceive that interaction simulation is a viable alternative. Performance and potential cost savings are key drivers for commercialising prototype tools. Conducting market-focussed research can help to ensure our future research is relevant, and meets the needs of industry.","PeriodicalId":413255,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE 9th International Conference on Global Software Engineering","volume":"52 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-08-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122004576","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, despite their importance, software systems may be quite costly to develop, so substantially decreasing companies' profits. In order to tackle this challenge, many organizations look for ways to decrease costs and increase profits by applying new software development approaches, like Global Software Development (GSD). Some aspects of the software project like communication, cooperation and coordination are more challenging in globally distributed than in collocated projects, since language, cultural and time zone differences are factors which can increase the required effort to globally perform a software project. Communication, coordination and cooperation aspects affect directly the effort estimation of a project, which is one of the critical tasks related to the management of a software development project. There are many studies related to effort estimation methods/techniques for colocated projects. However, there are evidences that the colocated approaches do not fit to GSD. So, this paper presents the results of a systematic literature review of effort estimation in the context of GSD, which aimed at help both researchers and practitioners to have a holistic view about the current state of the art regarding effort estimation in the context of GSD. The results suggest that there is room to improve the current state of the art on effort estimation in GSD.","PeriodicalId":413255,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE 9th International Conference on Global Software Engineering","volume":"101 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-08-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133796973","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}

Traditionally, coordination follows a series of update-modify-commit\" cycles, where merge conflicts arise upon committing if individual modifications have diverged and must be explicitly reconciled. Researchers have been suggesting that providing timely awareness information about \"who's changing what\" may not only help deal with conflicts but, more generally, improve the effectiveness of collaboration. This paper investigates the impact of awareness information in the context of globally distributed software development. Based on an analysis of data from 105 student developers constituting 12 development teams located in different countries, we analyze, among other things: 1) the frequency of merge conflicts and insufficient awareness, 2) the impact of distribution on team awareness, 3) the perceived impact of conflicts and lack of awareness on productivity, motivation, and project punctuality. Our findings include: 1) lack of awareness occurs more frequently than merge conflicts, 2) information about remote team members is missing roughly as often as information about colocated ones, 3) insufficient awareness information affects more negatively programmer's performance than merge conflicts.","PeriodicalId":413255,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE 9th International Conference on Global Software Engineering","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-08-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129599051","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}

The Global Teaming Model is one example, organizing extensive empirical research into a cohesive process model for managing global software development projects. Problem: evidence shows that empirical research does not reach practitioners: software project managers do not read academic publications. Thus research results need to be cast in a form that is accessible to practitioners. Approach: We employ a two-pronged approach to address this problem. First, we translate research results into software process patterns, that describe a specific software development problem and an empirically derived and validated solution. Second, we enter the patterns into a knowledge based system that recommends patterns applicable to a software development project. Result: We used this approach to create a decision support system based on the Global Teaming Model. The result makes the sixty specific practices in the Global Teaming Model immediately accessible to managers and developers involved in Global Software Development. Also, the patternization of Global Teaming Model practices proved to be an efficient, low-overhead approach to translating research results into a practitioner-friendly format. Conclusion: The combination of patterns and knowledge-based decision support promises to bridge the research-practice divide by making research results more accessible to those who might benefit from them.","PeriodicalId":413255,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE 9th International Conference on Global Software Engineering","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-08-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126305146","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}
