摘要：Software project offshoring is a rapidly growing trend. With this rapid growth, the software engineering research community is facing many challenges like cultural differences, linguistic problem etc because offshore software development is largely different from co-located software development OSD. This variance in software development nature has introduced many challenges. One of them is communication gap between client and offshore vendor. The literature evidences indicate that many problems like time delays, over budgeting etc are directly rooted from this communication gap and some new risks are also introduced by poor communication in OSD offshore software development [5, 7]. In this paper we have highlighted different perspectives, and motivators of OSD. We have emphasized on the significance of some OSD challenges and especially focused on communication problems between client and offshore vendor along with suggested future work.
