“…The VSH project complements the JP environment with focus on both the traditional scale of configuration complexity, as well as the emerging complexity of organizations. It is investigating new business opportunities made available by the emerging technology and the trend toward virtual organizations, based on earlier work project on software component development and cross-organization deployment investigated in the GIPSY project [Mur97,MS97]. A goal of the VSH project is a service architecture for electronic component-based software construction, deployment, marketing and consulting services in ways that will scale into the emerging development models.…”

Emerging technologies such as the Internet, the World Wide Web, Java TM technology, and software components, are changing the software business. Activities that have in the past been constrained by the need for intense information management increasingly involve cooperating organizations. Information management tools and techniques do not scale well in the face of this organizational complexity. An informal approach to information sharing, based largely on manual copying of information, cannot meet the demands of the task as size and complexity increase. Formal approaches to sharing information are based on groupware tools, but cooperating organizations do not always enjoy the trust or commonality of sophisticated infrastructure, methods, and skills that this approach requires. Bridging the gap requires a simple, loosely coupled, highly flexible strategy for information sharing. Extensive information relevant to different parts of the software life cycle should be interconnected in a simple, easily described way; such connections should permit selective information sharing by a variety of tools and in a variety of collaboration modes that vary in the amount of organizational coupling they require.

“…[10,11]) are focused on processcentered software engineering in order to extend the local scope of processes beyond a single organization frontier, by additionally supporting processes linkage to reflect the dependency of the components being development in the collaborative work. Our approach is based on the evaluation of some practices used to define software processes in a distributed environment.…”

Global software development projects are passing through the boundaries of a company or a country. In order to manage global teams effectively, it is necessary to define a software process adapted to different organizational cultures. A global software process gives all team members a common language to define tasks and activities allowing the better understanding of the business domain terms and the project milestones in spite of their differences in terms of culture and organizational structures. This paper presents the practices adopted to define a global software process for a distributed environment and the factors that impacted in the process definition. Lessons learned are also presented.
