Impact of Requirements Volatility and Flexible Management on GSD Project Success: A Study Based on the Dimensions of Requirements Volatility
Global software development (GSD) is a modern approach that is currently being adopted by software organisations, mainly because of significant return on investment it produces. In the GSD projects, the development teams operate under the three distributed dimensions: geographical, cultural and temporal distances which increases substantial communication difficulties and becomes the development activities more challenging especially related to requirement volatility. The objective of this study is to identify the relationship between requirements volatility, and GSD project success. We have proposed a GSD risk-based model that consider project performance risk as a mediating variable for analysing the impact of requirement volatility on GSD project success. A questionnaire study was conducted from the 103 GSD experts to validate the proposed model. The findings reveal that requirements volatility increases the project performance risk which has a negative impact on the GSD project success which can be managed by the flexible management.
期刊介绍：
The objective of IJASM is to establish an effective channel of communication between academia, industry and persons concerned with the design and development of systems. Change is eternal and perpetual, irrespective of type of system. Systems created in the course of the advance of human civilization need to be functionally and operationally sustainable amid changes in technological, political, socio-economical, financial, cultural and other environmental challenges. IJASM aims to promote and harmonize knowledge developments in the emerging fields of agile systems research, sustainability and vulnerability analysis, risk assessments methodologies, complex systems science, e-organisation and e-supply chain management, with emphasis on the international dimension, particularly breaking cultural barriers, and on national contexts, globalisation and new business practices. As such, we aim to publish papers presenting new research, innovative theoretical approaches, changes in agile management paradigms, and action (both examples of successes and failures as long as there are important lessons to be learned) from leading scholars and practitioners. Papers generally fall into two broad categories: those grounded in theory and/or papers using scientific research methods (e.g., reports of original empirical studies, models, critical reviews of existing empirical research, theory pieces that clearly extend current thinking); and those focusing on innovative agile approaches that are based on well reasoned extensions of existing research, experiential knowledge, or exemplary cases (e.g., thought pieces, case studies, etc).
