2008 2nd IFIP/IEEE International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Software Engineering
A Multidimensional Model for Mum Effect in Offshore Outsourcing
June 17-June 19
ISBN: 978-0-7695-3249-3
Offshore outsourcing has become a cost-saving measure in modern software businesses. However, there are numerous risks associated in this business model. Among these risks, "mum effect" could be one of the serious threats to software development projects. This paper extends our previous work on the perceived probability of "mum effect" in offshore outsourcing scenarios based on cultural dimensions. It introduces a mum effect multidimensional model, and describes the perceived relationship between mum effect factors and cultural differences.
Index Terms:
