| Popis | Nowadays, software projects are a vital element in any organization’s success. It plays the highest role in the organization’s success in most cases. Hence, its main focus is to earn more money on a project and minimize the developing time cost. Sometimes due to unavailability of experts may decrease the profit of the organization. Thus, the organization comes with these types of issues. They want to increase the profit and decrease the development time and on fewer budgets, hire the more expert people to achieve the organization’s goal. For this purpose, they are applying the new development approach called GSD (global software development).Through global software development, they develop their project on a reasonable budget and maximize profit. However, in GSD, other challenges of team communication, coordination, geographical location, and cultural and time zone differences increase the project’s effort. This paper shows the more critical factors in GSD and the more challenging and shows their impact. They are more challenging on which project manager or team leader more focus on these factors, which can be more helpful for the project’s success. This paper is more helpful for both industries and researchers in that they can easily estimate the effort in the context of GSD. |
