Abstract

Source code and class diagram are artifacts produced or updated during software development. However, when the scenario in which teams are distributed is considered, the temporal and geographical distances among individuals affect communication, creating inconsistencies and ambiguities about the software artifacts. These problems can be minimized by sharing contextual information of actions that occur on cooperation objects. This paper presents the DiSEN-CollaborAR, an approach to deal with context awareness on software artifacts. It provides resources to communicate what individuals have done over the software artifacts. This is possible by capturing contextual information that is represented, stored, processed and displayed. So, awareness elements, artifact context and traceability among software artifacts contribute to increase the understanding of the software artifacts and also the collaboration among distributed teams.
