Managing requirements change in Global Software Development
Naveed Ali, Richard Lai · 2014
Requirements change is an inevitable activity and can occur due to changes in user demands, increased understanding of the stakeholders, customer organization, project vision, requirements specification and availability of technological solutions. Although requirements change management (RCM) is not a straightforward process in collocated software development, the presence of geographical, social, cultural and temporal variations makes the process more difficult for software teams in Global Software Development (GSD). Existing methods do not adequately address many of the GSD issues and challenges. In this paper, we present a graph-based method for RCM.
