Abstract :
Effort is not evenly used among the project life cycle. In order to survive in the competitive environment, software vendors should keep mind of effort balancing. This paper introduces yet another solution for the balancing which shares the dynamic redundant resource among multiple software projects via a community platform. The human resource is identified in roles and the platform enables the resource optimization on the basis of expertise and experience valuation.
