2
Increasing numbers of software engineers in world
Challenges within this environment
physical separation temporal distance cultural distance language, or linguistic distance
3
These distances experienced in Global Software
Given the substantial growth and associated
process models are developed to support GSE
De facto models like CMMI is not sufficient for GSE Therefore, a specific process area, Global Teaming
aims to support GSE implementation
4
Advancement in technical communication
Internet and Telecommunication
Skilled manpower with reduced cost in different
Different skills and knowledge at different area
5
Organizations improve their software processes to
Set of tools, methods and practices used to produce
Set of activities, methods, practices and
6
Argue against:
implementing planned processes decrease the
Argue for:
implementing planned processes can increase
7
8
Action research and a grounded theory approach
for data gathering and data analysis
From 1999 to 2007 in three different phases
9
Findings from empirical case study research and
technical support team selection clear definition of roles and responsibilities skills management process management risk management reporting and information management etc
10
Potential threats were identified
through analysis of the literature empirical work
GSE can lead to increased risks especially when
Socio-cultural factors can affect global teams and
De facto process models are not sufficient to GSE etc
11
To understand how GSE is supported within the
matching the GSE factors identified to the statements in
Systematic gap analysis
explicit process areas implicit processes defined GSE factors, not mentioned in the CMMI
12
Having completed the literature review, case
GT model developed
to reflect the current CMMI structure to include
Specific Goals, Specific Practices and Sub-practices
Adapt and customize the structure as the CMMI is
industry in their Software Process Improvement activities
13
Analysis of the literature and empirical studies, found
a loss of competitive advantage practitioner de-motivation poor quality software
Failing to implement GSE processes correctly means
organizations are putting themselves at risk of project
Organizations lack support in how to implement a
14
the CMMI structure used as a basis for the
by augmenting with new factors found to be
Thus, GT process area can be used
as a CMMI supplement used in conjunction with other processes
15
CMMI is not sufficient as a process model for GSE
therefore, it is necessary developing a process model
Base on gap analysis
GT Model developed
has two Specific Goals (SGs)
16
GT process area has two Specific Goals (SGs)
Define Global Project Management
represents practices required at project initiation
Define Management Between Locations
classifies practices required when the project is operational ensures that as operating procedures are set up correctly focuses on collaboration between locations Each SG has Specific Practices (SPs) and sub-
17
In order to answer second research question
GT model practices presented, to groups of experts in
to gain some informal feedback on the mode The experts found the guidelines immediately
18
In order to gain more formal feedback as to how
in depth validation of the GT processes based on a
Validating Global Teaming model in industry
need longitudinal study open issue and on the study by researchers
19
Global Teaming process area
important for establishing and managing effective
provide specific goals, specific practices, sub-practices
can be used by industry to implement a GSE strategy
Explanation to potential threats to GSE if

21
Many organizations have discovered to their cost
a complex and difficult task
Studies show that a number of factors including
the nature and impact of geographical temporal distance cultural distance linguistic distance
22
On the other hand, in geographically distributed
has human, social and cultural implications need to be specifically addressed
Thus, Global Teaming process area developed to
focuses on the importance of establishing and
23
Ways of problem domain and solution domain
Way of factors identified and gap analyzed Way of threats identified and analyzed looking
Ways of literature review, case studies and gap
Way of designing and implementing validation
24
There is no clear boundary set for Framework,
lack of consistency in used create ambiguity
eg. GT process/area/mode/framework/Guidelines
The reason why the approaches believe to yield
