摘要：In today's global economy, shrinking business cycles and global competetition are changing the landscape of software development. Frequently, multiple and geographically dispersed development teams are working together on large complex software systems. The complexity of global software development (GSD) warrants investigation into practices for building highly effective geographically diverse teams. GSD introduces challenges such as physical distance, time-zone differences, and diversity of languages and cultures. Frequently, different parts of an organization might use different terms and naming schemes and may have unique ways of expressing concepts. Knowledge of dependencies between software components and a variety of technical platforms must be recognized and shared across the organization. Such a global environment requires a high degree of collaboration and knowledge sharing. The use of a flexible, user-friendly knowledge management system that allows natural language query processing across knowledge captured throughout the software development lifecycle (SDLC) is required to improve knowledge sharing and reuse.
