Investigating Key Areas of Research in Crowdsourcing Software Development
Shruti Sharma, Nitasha Hasteer, Jean-Paul Van Belle · 2017
Crowdsourcing Software Development implies outsourcing software development to crowd through an open call. This way of development is emerging out to be beneficial for software development organisations. It involves task decomposition and broader participation by way of which we get effective and diverse solutions. This is carried out by an open call invitation to the crowd who voluntarily participate in this activity. We have carried out a systematic review of the literature to identify focus areas of the field. In this work we report the key areas of research in this emerging software development paradigm.
