“…The social aspects of software engineering concern the relationships amongst various stakeholders, including the end users. These relationships should be accommodated in both the development process and the system-to-be in which the designed software operates [2,8].…”

“…One aspect that assists in building a working collaboration is the establishment of solid communication, coordination, and awareness amongst stakeholders. The research in various disciplines, such as Computer Supported Cooperative Work [31] Global Software Engineering [33], Cooperative and Human Aspects of Software Engineering [34], and Social Software Engineering [2], has investigated various ways to build and maintain such work collaboration and support the software engineering process. The emergence and wide popularity of social media and Web 2.0 technology encouraged the research on utilising these techniques in the context of software development.…”

There is a continual growth in the use of social computing within a breadth of business domains; such as marketing, public engagement and innovation management. Software engineering research, like other similar disciplines, has recently started to harness the power of social computing throughout the various development phases; from requirements elicitation to validation and maintenance and for the various methods of development and structures of development teams. However, despite this increasing effort, we still lack a clear picture of the current status of this research. To address that lack of knowledge, we conduct a systematic mapping study on the utilisation of social computing for software engineering. This will inform researchers and practitioners about the current status and progress of the field including the areas of current focus and the geographical and chronological distribution of the research. We do the mapping across a diversity of dimensions including the activities of software engineering, the types of research, the characteristics of social computing and the demographic attributes of the published work. Our study results show a growing interest in the field, mainly in academia, and a general trend toward developing designated social computing platforms and utilising them in mainly four software engineering areas; management, coding, requirements engineering, and maintenance and enhancement.

“…Studies show, that the main part of modern software engineering is carried out in teams, requiring strong interactions between the people involved in a project [1,13,14]. Social activity thus represents a substantial part of the daily work of a developer.…”

“…In the meantime software engineering has become a very knowledge-intensive [5] and communicative process (not only but also triggered by agile methods for software development) where the actors heavily exchange data (see Google-Code 1 ), connect with like-minded (see Google Summer of Code 2 ), blog about experiences in their own weblogs, provide code snippets free of charge (see Django-Snippets 3 ) or help novices with words and deeds in large mailing lists. This social software engineering -the creation of software and related artefacts within a social network -gained a lot of attention in recent software engineering research [1,17]. Besides the improvements of integrated development environments (IDE, e.g.…”

Abstract-Classical tools for supporting software engineering teams (collaborative development environment, CDE) are designed to support one team during the development of a product. Often the required data sources or experts reside outside of the internal project team and thus not provided by these CDEs. This paper describes an approach for a community-embedded CDE (CCDE), which is capable of handling multiple projects of several organizations, providing inter-project knowledge sharing and developer awareness. The presented approach uses the mashup pattern to integrate multiple data sources in order to provide software teams with an exactingly development environment.

“…The goal of CDEs is supporting the development process during all the process life cycle. While traditional environments focus on the efficiency of an individual developer, collaborative environments aim at improving the efficiency of a team as a whole [1].…”

Abstract. Software engineering is inherently a collaborative and social activity. Collaborative software engineering is a research area that aims at providing computer-based support to developers in the form of tools for coordination, communication and management. In this context, we present Paynal, an application that provides a set of collaboration facilities integrated into a development environment. Most important, Paynal provides managers and project leaders tools based on social network analysis to discover knowledge about team members and their relationships. We describe a case study in which Paynal has been successfully evaluated.
