    Exploring Collaboration Patterns Among Global Software Development Teams
    (Ieee Computer Soc, 2009) Serce, Fatma Cemile; Alpaslan, Ferda-Nur; Swigger, Kathleen; Brazile, Robert; Dafoulas, George; Lopez, Victor; Schumacker, Randy
    This study examines communication behaviors in global software student teams. The authors of the paper characterize the types of communication behaviors that occur when student teams are engaged in a software development project. The authors present findings from a one-semester study that examined factors contributing to successful distributed programming interactions among students enrolled at the University of Atilim (Turkey), Universidad Tecnologica de Panama, University of North Texas, and Middlesex University (UK). Using content and cluster analyses techniques, we identified distinct patterns of collaboration and examined how these patterns were associated with task, culture, GPA, and performance of collaborative teams. Our results suggest that communication patterns among global software learners may be related to task type, culture and GPA. It is hoped that these findings will lead to the development of new strategies for improving communication among global software teams.

    Exploring the Communication Behaviour Among Global Software Development Learners
    (inderscience Enterprises Ltd, 2011) Serce, Fatma Cemile; Swigger, Kathleen M.; Alpaslan, Ferda Nur; Brazile, Robert; Dafoulas, George; Lopez-Cabrera, Victor
    This study examines communication behaviours in global software learning teams. Using a coding scheme developed in previous research (Curtis and Lawson, 2001), the paper characterises communication behaviours of students engaged in a software development project. The paper reports the results of two pilot projects done with students in USA, England, Turkey and Panama. Through content analysis we identify distinct patterns of interactions and examine how these patterns are associated with task, culture, or performance. Our results suggest that communication patterns among global software learners may be related to task type, culture and levels of performance.

    When Do Distributed Student Teams Work?
    (2012) Swigger,K.; Dafoulas,G.; Serce,F.C.; Alpaslan,F.N.; Lopez,V.
    The authors analyzed 2500 communication activities of student teams engaged in global software development projects during an 18 month period to determine the temporal behavior of students engaged in distributed group activities. The data revealed a number of daily, weekly, and project regularities, which provide insights into how distributed teams use their time. The results from this study show that students often work outside of the normal workday. Students' work habits are sometimes determined by where they live and what tasks they are performing. Moreover, students tend to work on group projects in cycles, which follow a start-middle-end pattern. Knowledge obtained from this study should provide insight into current empirical research on computer-supported collaborative learning by defining the different time variables that can be used to compare temporal patterns of online teams. © 2012 IEEE.

    Global Teams: Futuristic Models of Collaborative Work for Today's Software Development Industry
    (2009) Dafoulas,G.A.; Swigger,K.; Brazile,R.; Alpaslan,F.N.; Cabrera,V.L.; Serce,F.C.
    This paper emphasises the importance of global teams in the field of software development. The paper presents an approach for setting up pilot studies simulating those key features that make global software development teams particularly attractive to exploit and challenging to manage. The underlying research is supported by a research project funded by the US National Science Foundation with the participation of universities from US, Turkey, Panama and the UK. The paper provides detailed guidelines for setting up simulations resembling globally dispersed software development teams and discusses preliminary data of two pilot studies with involving collaboration between teams residing in the US and the UK. Key concerns of this research are those factors affecting collaborative work when global teams are involved. Such factors include differences caused by distance, culture, time zones and technology. © 2009 IEEE.

    A Comparison of Team Performance Measures for Global Software Development Student Teams
    (Ieee Computer Soc, 2009) Swigger, Kathleen; Serce, Fatma Cemile; Alpaslan, Ferda Nur; Brazile, Robert; Dafoulas, George; Lopez, Victor
    One of the most difficult tasks for global software development researchers is quantifying the performance of groups and students who participate in these distributed projects [30]. There has been much debate about which factors better correlate with team performance and which best describe a successful team. The purpose of this paper is to compare the different approaches that have been used to evaluate the performance of global software learners and show how these techniques can affect research results. Using data from student groups engaged in global software development projects for the past year, the authors apply a number of different assessment methods and show their effects on different performance indicators. Our study suggests that the selection of appropriate measures to evaluate team performance can dramatically affect how one identifies successful teams.

    The Temporal Communication Behaviors of Global Software Student Teams
    (Pergamon-elsevier Science Ltd, 2012) Swigger, Kathleen; Hoyt, Matthew; Serce, Fatma Cemile; Lopez, Victor; Alpaslan, Ferda Nur
    This paper examines the global software development process by using content analysis techniques, as described in an earlier study (Serce et al., 2011), to determine time-variant patterns of communication behaviors among student teams engaged in a global software development project. Data gathered from two software development projects involving students in the US, Panama, and Turkey were used to determine how globally distributed team behavior is temporally patterned in complex ways. A formal, quantitative methodology for time variant analysis of the transcripts of global software student teams based on content analysis is established. Results from the analysis suggest a positive correlation between a team's temporal communication patterns and project outcomes as well as a relationship between variations in communication behaviors and different phases of the software development cycle. The research also found that the temporal variations in communication behaviors between software phases were similar for the two projects. Such findings are intended to strengthen the case for developing new temporal measures for analyzing groups and teams. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

    Interaction Patterns Among Global Software Development Learning Teams
    (Ieee, 2009) Serce, Fatma Cemile; Serçe, Fatma Cemile; Swigger, Kathleen; Alpaslan, Ferda Nur; Brazile, Robert; Dafoulas, George; Lopez, Victor; Serçe, Fatma Cemile; Information Systems Engineering; Information Systems Engineering
    This paper describes a study of the impact of communication behaviors on the performance of global software teams. Using a content analysis technique developed by [10], the researchers first characterized the asynchronous communications among student teams in Panama, Turkey and the US as they worked to complete a global software development project. Cluster analysis was then used to identify groups with similar communication patterns, which is defined as the proportion of time spent on each of the behaviors. Results suggest that particular patterns of communication behaviors are associated with higher performance. More specifically, it appears that communications related to the "contributing" category seem to have the strongest relationship to high performance.
