Agile offsharing: Using pair work to overcome nearshoring difficulties
Lutz Prechelt · 2013
A major problem in distributed development situations, in particular offshoring situations, is often creating a proper understanding of the requirements at the remote site. It is difficult even if such understanding is available at the local site. This note argues why cross-site, synchronous, closely-coupled pair work at an engineering level, such as pair programming, may be a method for solving this problem and that corresponding research should be carried out.
