Abstract:
Knowledge of the team members of a co-located software project grows with increasing interaction with the business client. It also grows with the subsequent intra-project knowledge transfer among the team members. The challenge lies in forming a project team in such a manner that it helps the team members to enhance their individual knowledge as well as improve the overall team output during the project execution. In this paper, a quantitative model is formulated to quantify the intra-project knowledge growth and the overall team output in a co-located software project team. The model is developed with the help of a set of focus group studies and previous literature. Six different policies or scenarios are then formulated with the help of the model to assess the impact of team composition on knowledge growth and team output by using case-data from 3 different real-world co-located software teams. The model is validated by comparing the model results with the estimated results in terms of team output.
