Team Cognition and Collaboration in Model-Driven Development

Project Details

  • Project Overview
    We study the use of social network analysis techniques as well as data mining approaches to investigate collaboration and coordination around modeling artifacts.

Project Description

necsis-logoThis project studies cognition and collaboration in model-driven software development. It is part of a larger canadian research network NECSIS and benefits from the collaboration with two major industrial partners:  IBM and a large automotive manufacturing organization. NECSIS is a research partnership between nine research institutions and three industrial partners and is concerned with the study of Engineering of Complex Software-Intensive Systems for Automotive Systems.

Project Components and Results

Model development and management involves collaboration in a complex and constantly changing working context. This project (1) develops techniques that investigate the communication of project members involved in the development and refinement of models and (2) develops methods for provision of (2.1) real-time information surrounding the social network associated with interrelated models in aiding developers’ cognition and collaboration processes as well as  (2.2) recommendations for effective coordination around interrelated models.
