This paper proposes a fundamental change in the way we view software development and the role of software in our society. We argue that the conventional understanding of software as a vehicle for automation is responsible for some of the most serious problems in the industry. As an alternative, we present a view of software as knowledge, and software development as knowledge creation. This shif...
متن کاملKnowledge Creation in Virtual Teams
The paper aims to contribute to a better understanding of knowledge creation in a context not researched extensively so far, the virtual context. Claiming that knowledge is connected to the context in which is created, the paper argues that knowledge creation could be differentiated by the specific characteristics of virtuality. The process of knowledge creation is conceptualised using a theore...
متن کاملFree-Riding in Student Software Development Teams: An Exploratory Study
In the team literature there is much discussion about free-riding as a main obstacle for teams to achieve quality performance. Given its importance to team success, however, empirical study of the free-rider problem has lagged behind the conceptual work. So far, little research has been conducted in field settings to measure the scale of free-riding and investigate how the problem may deteriora...
متن کاملClassification of Group Potency Levels of Software Development Student Teams
This paper describes the use of an automatic classifier to model group potency levels within software development projects. A set of machine learning experiments that looked at different group characteristics and various collaboration measures extracted from a team’s communication activities were used to predict overall group potency levels. These textual communication exchanges were collected ...
متن کاملKnowledge Creation Dynamics in Multidisciplinary Virtual Teams
Virtual teams formed across organisational boundaries and organised around an opportunity are a relatively new area of research. The purpose of forming such teams is new ‘knowledge creation’. The focus of this paper, therefore, is on the processes of collective ‘knowing’ resulting in novel combinations of products and services. The paper presents the preliminary results of a qualitative researc...
