Technology and organizations co-evolve, as is illustrated by the
growth of information and communication technology (ICT) and global
software engineering (GSE). Technology has enabled the development
of innovations in GSE. The literature on GSE has emphasized the
role of the organization at the expense of technology. This book
explores the role of technology in the evolution of globally
distributed software engineering. To date, the role of the
organization has been examined in coordinating GSE activities
because of the prevalence of the logic of rationality (i.e., the
efficiency ethos, mechanical methods, and mathematical analysis)
and indeterminacy (i.e., the effectiveness ethos, natural methods,
and functional analysis). This logic neglects the coordination role
of ICT. However, GSE itself is an organizational mode that is
technology-begotten, technology-dominated, and technology-driven,
as is its coordination. GSE is a direct reflection of ICT
innovation, change, and use, yet research into the role technology
of GSE has been neglected. Global Software Engineering:
Virtualization and Coordination considers existing fragmented
explanations and perspectives in GSE research, poses new questions
about GSE, and proposes a framework based on the logic of
virtuality (i.e., creativity ethos, electrical methods, and
technological analysis) rather than of rationality and
indeterminacy. Virtuality is the primary perspective in this book's
comprehensive study of GSE. The book concludes with an integrated
explanation of GSE coordination made possible through ICT
connectivity and capitalization.
