The
workshop theme is agile methods applied in the context of
global software engineering. At first glance, agile methods
and global software development might seem incompatible. Agile
methods stress continuous face-to-face communication, whereas
communication has been reported as the biggest problem of
global software development. However, agile methods have been
successfully used in distributed projects, indicating that
they could benefit global software development. In this context,
rather than deciding whether or not to get involved in global
development, many companies are facing decisions about whether
or not to apply agile methods in their distributed projects.
These companies are often motivated by the opportunities to
solve the coordination and communication difficulties associated
with global software development.In this workshop we intend
to discuss how agile methods can enhance productivity of distributed
projects, what are the best practices, success cases and failure
stories. We will seek to facilitate discussions around the
following (but not limited to) topics:
- Adoption and diffusion of agile methods in the context of
global projects
- Implementing agility in global software development
- Offshore Agile
- Empirical studies and experiences of agile methods applied
to global projects
- Tools and techniques for agile development with global teams
- Social and human aspects of agile methods in the context
of global projects
- Communication, management and governance aspects of agile
methods for global projects, teams and organizations
- Implications of agile methods and global software engineering
for research and education
The goal of this workshop is to promote a forum for the discussion
about how agile practices can be implemented in the context
of global software engineering.

We
solicit the following types of submissions from both
researchers and practitioners:
-
Research papers - should describe original and significant
results of research and/or industrial practice in
global software engineering for agile teams. Research
papers are limited to 8 proceedings pages. Papers
must not have been previously published nor submitted
or under consideration elsewhere for publication.
-
Extended abstracts - should describe original ideas
from research and/or industrial practice, but are not
required to show complete/evaluated results. Extended
abstract papers should not exceed 4 pages, and are tended
to share and discuss ideas in their early stages.
Each submission will be reviewed by three members of
the program committee. At least one of the authors of
each accepted paper is required to register for the
workshop and to present the paper at the workshop. Submissions
must follow the IEEE conference proceedings format.
Please
submit your contributions (in PDF) to EasyChair: https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=globagile2011
Authors should first register to the EasyChair system.

| The 6th International
Conference on Global Software Engineering (ICGSE) will
bring together researchers and practitioners interested
in exploring how globally distributed teams work and how
the challenges can be met. The ICGSE 2011 organizing committee
invites the academic and industrial communities to contribute
to the expertise of the international global software
engineering community. Conference attendees will get an
opportunity to explore the current state of practice in
this area as well as new thoughts and trends that will
shape the future. In 2011, to increase the focus on Industry,
we are including an industry track, for which papers will
be separately reviewed. |
