Description

Many software development companies currently are expanding their operations globally. Competitive advantage and the financial profits it brings to an organization are the driving forces behind the globalization of software. Organizations are benefiting from GSD, but communication has been a problem that has limited its expansion. In contrast to co-located projects, miscommunication and misunderstanding caused by the distance between development sites occur considerably more frequently in GSD projects, which ultimately affects customer satisfaction and software quality. Agile Methods are seen as excellent processes for GSD because of their flexibility. The most popular Agile approach, Extreme Programming (XP), is examined in our study, and different factors supporting GSD are suggested.
