Abstract :
Today, many software projects are geographically distributed, so software managers must know how to manage distributed teams. For example, they need to know how to build teams across sites, how to break down and distribute tasks, how to share knowledge across time, space, and cultural differences, and how to coordinate work to produce coherent outcomes.
