Abstract

Software and system development nowadays is increasingly a globally-distributed undertaking. Development teams are often distributed over multiple sites and countries. Geographic separation, different time zones and cultural differences have brought new challenges to Requirements Engineering, which require improved skills in communication, collaboration and dealing with intercultural issues. This paper presents the idea of the CIRCUS workshop held in conjunction with RE'09 and summarizes organizational prerequisites and proven success factors for Global Requirements Engineering.
