Abstract:

Nowadays, large projects are developed by globally distributed developer

teams. Global Software Development (GSD) is currently not supported by appropriate

tools but with the tools designed for on-site development. In this work we analyze

benets of a peer-to-peer approach to integrated environment for GSD, analyze its

requirements from selected industrial eld studies, and present the architecture of our

solution – Peer-to-Peer based Integrated Project-support Environment (PI PE).

Abstract:

The increasing number of distributed software projects together with the

success of agile development methodologies raise new challenges for collaboration

and knowledge sharing. While traditional centralized knowledge management solutions

fail to address these challenges, Semantic Wikis bring new potentials, providing

lightweight, incremental and machine-readable knowledge articulation and

sharing facilities. In this paper we survey the state-of-the-art of Semantic Wikis.

We then discuss how they can cope with difficulties of conventional Wikis to efficiently

manage knowledge created in software engineering projects.
