Experimental Evaluation of Team Performance in Program Development Based on a Model : Extension of a Programmer Performance Model

概要

This paper proposes and compares three models (ST1, ST2, and ST3) for evaluating team performance in software development. These three models are defined by extending the programmer performance model (SI),which is defined according to a concept of error life span and has a high correlation with the "aptitude" of a student programmer. The definitions are as follows: (1) ST1=ΣSI_j, where SI_j is the performance of programmer j in the team, (2) ST2=1/nΣSI_j, where n is the number of programmers in the team, and (3) ST3=SI, where SI is the programmer performance when the team is considered as an individual programmer. The results of experimental evaluations show that ST3 is the most appropriate model for evaluating team performance in software development. They also show that it is possible to devise an optimal team organization strategy based on the model, in which ST3 reaches a maximum when programmer j develops program components with a total size of N×^SI_L _ΣSI_j, where N is the total size of the program developed by the team.
