Research on Learning Software Organizations - Past, Present, and Future

摘要

The diversity of topics addressed by the contributions presented at LSO 2004 clearly reflects the interdisciplinary viewpoint required for successful knowledge management approaches for software-intensive organizations. Despite the advances reported on, further effort will need to be spent on a number of outstanding issues and challenges, in particular: Techniques, methods, and tools that allow for a lightweight, incremental phase-in of knowledge management; peer-to-peer knowledge sharing; scalability of proposed knowledge management approaches; measuring the success of these approaches, to name but a few. Notwithstanding innovations in the domain of learning software organizations, we continue to recognize that human skills, expertise, and relationships will remain the most valuable assets of a software-intensive organization.
