A Research Framework for Investigating the Successful Configuration of Globally Distributed Agile Teams
Jason H. Sharp, Sherry D. Ryan · Journal of the Association for Information Systems · 2007
To combat the traditional challenges associated with software development, parallel interest is growing in agile methods and global software development through the use of virtual teams as potential solutions. Although in the past agile methods were not considered applicable to global projects, some current research suggests that this is no longer the case. Drawing upon extant literature, the purpose of this paper is to derive a research framework for investigating the dimensions which may lead to the successful configuration of globally distributed agile teams.
