MAKING SENSE OF PROJECT MANAGEMENT – A CASE OF KNOWLEDGE MANAGEMENT IN SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT
"... How can a software company make sense of project management when it becomes involved in software process improvement? In software development most research has an instrumental view of knowledge management thus neglecting what is probably the most important part of knowledge management namely making ..."

sense of practice by developers and project managers. Through an action case, we study the knowledge management processes in a Danish software company. We analyse the case through the lens of a theoretical framework. The theoretical framework focuses in particular on sensemaking, collective construed
Exploring Skills and Qualities of Knowledge Coordinators in Regional Reactivation Projects

Knowledge scouts: Reducing communication barriers in a distributed software development project
- Communications of the ACM
, 1988
"... As a result of globalization, mergers, acquisitions, and scarce skills, software development is increasingly more distributed. Distribution, however, introduces major communication barriers, including time zone differences, cultural differences, and most project participants have not met face to fac ..."

INFLUENCE OF GEOGRAPHIC DISPERSION ON CONTROL AND COORDINATION APPROACHES FOR MANAGEMENT OF SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS
"... In the recent past, the Indian information technology industry has been able to grow at double-digit figures, thanks to the burgeoning demand for software services and products in the international market. Some of the Indian software companies have benefited from these changes, as they have been abl ..."

Separation of resources in time and space leads to problems in controlling and coordinating these activities. Various formal
Managing knowledge in software method adoption
"... Abstract: The complex and problematic relationship between software development methods and practices is well documented. Methods are difficult to adopt. There are several barriers toward successfully bringing methods to practice, and practices are, by the end of the day, quite different from method ..."

The secret life of bugs: Going past the errors and omissions in software repositories
- In ICSE '09: Proceedings of the 2009 IEEE 31st International Conference on Software Engineering
, 2009
"... Every bug has a story behind it. The people that discover and resolve it need to coordinate, to get information from documents, tools, or other people, and to navigate through issues of accountability, ownership, and organizational structure. This paper reports on a field study of coordination activ ..."

Results show that the histories of even simple bugs are strongly dependent on social, organizational, and technical knowledge that cannot be solely extracted through automation of electronic
Supplier integration into new product development: coordinating product, process, and supply chain design
- Journal of Operations Management
, 2005
"... In many industries, firms are looking for ways to cut concept-to-customer development time, to improve quality, and to reduce the cost of new products. One approach shown to be successful in Japanese organizations involves the integration of material suppliers early in the new product development cy ..."

We suggest a model of the key activities required for successful supplier integration into NPD projects, based on case studies with 17 Japanese and American manufacturing organizations. The model is validated using data from a survey of purchasing executives in global corporations
Maturing Software Engineering Knowledge through Classifications: A Case Study on Unit Testing Techniques
"... Abstract—Classification makes a significant contribution to advancing knowledge in both science and engineering. It is a way of investigating the relationships between the objects to be classified and identifies gaps in knowledge. Classification in engineering also has a practical application; it su ..."
