Abstract

Many software organizations are restructuring their software development groups by extending operations to offshore software development centers. Thus, a Follow the Sun (FTS) development is a potential strategy for these organizations. FTS can help with reducing the software development life cycle duration and consequently the time-to-market. However, while the FTS concept looks promising in theory, it appears to be difficult in practice and software organizations have a pressing need for support in how to successfully implement FTS in a global software environment. In this paper, we combine the results from prior work in FTS and a design validation method conducted by experts to propose a software process model for FTS development, named FTS-SPM (Follow the Sun Software Process Model). Our paper describes how we built the FTS-SPM and draws recommendations for software organizations interested in practicing FTS.
