TY - JOUR AU - Britto, Ricardo AU - Wohlin, Claes AU - Mendes, Emilia PY - 2016 DA - 2016/06/07 TI - An extended global software engineering taxonomy JO - Journal of Software Engineering Research and Development SP - 3 VL - 4 IS - 1 AB - In Global Software Engineering (GSE), the need for a common terminology and knowledge classification has been identified to facilitate the sharing and combination of knowledge by GSE researchers and practitioners. A GSE taxonomy was recently proposed to address such a need, focusing on a core set of dimensions; however its dimensions do not represent an exhaustive list of relevant GSE factors. Therefore, this study extends the existing taxonomy, incorporating new GSE dimensions that were identified by means of two empirical studies conducted recently.
