Description
Summary:Developing a system to provide support for distributed software developers (DSD) to get into collaboration is very complicated. On the first hand, it is necessary to know the characteristics of their daily work activities. On the other hand, technical aspects must be considered, such as obtaining information on the context and on the data flow of their activities. This requires information from the individual and group work environment. Therefore, we propose a model to help in the development of this type of system. Firstly, our work aims at modeling the information flow of DSD workers based on a literature survey and on our own experience. Secondly, we describe a projected implementation scenario based on the multi-agent proposed system.
