Keynote address

Knowledge Collaboration in Distributed Software Development

André van der Hoek (University of California, USA)

Abstract:
Knowledge collaboration takes many forms in software development, with numerous tools that have been developed to support the activity. In a distributed setting, knowledge sharing becomes particularly challenging: affordances that exist in a central setting are no longer available in the distributed environment. In this talk, we introduce a theoretical framework that helps us categorize and understand distributed software collaboration tools, use exemplary systems to illustrate what kinds of knowledge they offload from the developers and what advanced forms of knowledge sharing they thereby enable, and provide a roadmap towards future knowledge collaboration tools.

Keynote address

Understanding Networked Collaboration

Shuichiro Yamamoto (NTT Data Corporation, Japan)

Abstract:
My recent interest is the mutual interaction among people and IT systems in different research domains. These domains include Knowledge creation, Requirements Engineering, and Dependable Systems Engineering. In this talk, I will propose several ideas to understand the mutual interactions among actors, where both people and IT systems are treated as actors. These ideas are Intermediary Knowledge, Actor relationship matrix and Engineering case pattern language. I am also planning in the future to integrate these approaches for designing Knowledge Collaboration through computer networks.
