Abstract

With the rapid progress of internet technology, more and more software projects adopt e-development to facilitate the software development process in a world wide context. However, collaborative software e-development activity itself is a complex orchestration. It involves many people working together without the barrier of time and space difference. Therefore, how to efficiently monitor and control software e-development in a global perspective becomes an important issue for any internet-based software e-development project. In this paper, we present a novel approach to tackle this crucial issue by means of controlling e-development process, collaborative task progress and communication quality. Meanwhile, we also present our e-development supporting environment prototype: Caribou, to demonstrate the viability of our approach.
