The Distributed Software Development has become an option for software companies to expand their perspective and work with dispersed teams, exploiting the advantages brought by this approach. However, this way of developing software enables new challenges to arise, such as the inexistence of a formal, normalized model of a project’s data and artifacts accessible to all the individuals involved, which makes it harder for them to communicate, understand each other and what is specified on the project’s artifacts. This paper proposes a knowledge base called DKDOnto, a domain-specific ontology for distributed development, aiming to help projects with a common vocabulary, allowing to assist better the distributed software development process.
