A Service Oriented Model for Role Based Global Cooperative Software Development

It is really a flourishing software engineering world now with many cataloged software engineering process, such as Waterfall, Agile and RUP; many cataloged techniques supporting software development, such as OO, SOA, UML and MDA and prominent advance of computer & communication technique, including online instant meeting, video-conference, etc. Besides, there are many best practice published, which may bring forth some good idea to us. However, the software engineering and project management domain is not so well integrated in many software enterprises. While role based software development method has being presented, the global distributed software projects are facing the problem in dynamic task arrangement. Furthermore, there is a large gap between role based model and software development. This paper presents the method to bridge the project management to software engineering. The organization model, governance model, dynamic cooperative task arrangement and effort balancing mechanism will be introduced in detail.
