Description
Summary:Software engineering (SE) is a highly collaborative and knowledge-intensive process involving a large number of different roles. On the one hand, it highly depends on efficient management of and access to various kinds of information about SE artifacts, processes, and knowledge, such as explicitly documented experiences. On the other hand, software engineers need to continuously learn while performing SE activities. This paper describes the underlying concept of the Flex-based wiki platform SOP, which aims at supporting the creation, storage, and exchange of SE information. One specific SOP extension called learning space generation is described in more detail: it enriches documented SE experiences with additional learning content and hence presents one effective way of integrating organizational and individual learning at the workplace. In addition, evaluation results and improvement suggestions for future work are provided.
