abstract |
One of the hallmarks of a co-located agile team is the simple and open flow of information
between its members. In a co-located setting, peripheral awareness, osmotic communication
and simple information radiators support agile principles such as collective ownership,
minimal documentation and simple design, and facilitate smooth collaboration. However
in a dispersed agile team, where individual team members are distributed across several
sites, these mechanisms are not available and information sharing has to be more explicit.
Research into distributed software development has been tackling similar issues, but
little work has been reported into dispersed agile teams. This paper reports on a
field study of one successful partially dispersed agile team. Using a distributed
cognition analysis which focuses on information propagation and transformation within
the team we investigate how the team collaborates and compare our findings with those
from co-located teams. |
