Resumo: |
Searching for competitive advantages as low cost and productivity gains, organizations choose to distribute their software development process to other countries with more affordable production costs. Increasingly, projects are being developed in geographically distributed environments, featuring the distributed software development. However, the challenges inherent in this software development environment are significant. Among these challenges is the time zone difference, which can also be tackled as an advantage, through the use of the Follow-the-Sun development. However, the Follow-the-Sun strategy presents some challenges, mainly alongside the hand-offs. Therefore, this research focuses to present a development process to alleviate the challenges found in project that uses the Follow-the-Sun strategy, focusing in the development phase from the software development life cycle. Yet, it performs an experiment to evaluate the created process efficiency. The findings from the experimental process shows evidences the created process actually alleviate the challenges found in the Follow-the-Sun strategy |
