    A tool to enhance cooperation and knowledge transfer among software developers
    (Springer, Berlin, Heidelberg, 2009) Aydın, Seçil; Mishra, D.
    Software developers have been successfully tailoring software development methods according to the project situation and more so in small scale software development organizations. There is a need to share this knowledge with other developers who may be facing the same project situation so that they can benefit from other people experiences. In this paper, an approach to enhance cooperation among software developers, in terms of sharing the knowledge that was used successfully in past projects, is proposed. A web-based tool is developed that can assist in creation, storage and extraction of methods related with requirement elicitation phase. These methods are categorized according to certain criteria which helps in searching a method that will be most appropriate in a given project situation. This approach and tool can also be used for other software development activities. © 2009 Springer Berlin Heidelberg.

    (CEUR-WS, 2016) Çoban, S.; Uçar, Erkan; Chouseinoglou, Oumout; Sevgi, C.; Testik, Murat Caner
    Today, Cloud Computing offers attractive and effective solutions for organizations which enable them to decrease IT costs, provide flexibility to ser-vices and make it easier to access IT services -Therefore enable faster market entries. For an organization that decides to make use of Cloud services, there are various factors to evaluate - similar to outsourcing. In this paper, we studied these factors through the literature and then we tried to understand the viewpoints of software developers regarding the existing and possible future usage of Cloud in software development processes. In this context, we prepared a questionnaire based on the findings in the literature and applied it to software development team members working in technoparks in Turkey. We used the dataset which is obtained from this questionnaire to observe the relationship between the tendency of using Cloud in software development processes and the factors effecting them. This research is performed as the first phase of a study with a larger scope, de-signed to forecast the Cloud needs of software developing organizations and it provides important findings. The questionnaire findings also describe the current demographics of software development organizations in Turkish technoparks to-gether with their perception of Cloud services.
