Title
Merlin Collaboration Handbook - Challenges And Solutions In Global Collaborative Product Development
Abstract
Global, collaborative and distributed development is increasingly common in software development. However, the traditional product and software development technologies do not support this way of working well, e.g., time and cultural differences cause new requirements for these technologies. In this paper, we introduce a public web-based handbook, collecting the challenges encountered in global collaborative development by the companies, and also a large number of solutions that help in tackling these challenges. The handbook was implemented using an ontology editor and generating HTML pages. In the final phase of the development the handbook was validated by several external testers, with main feedback being that the handbook was found useful, but more practical solutions would be welcome. Handbook was also updated based on the feedback.
