Abstract
Global, collaborative and distributed development is
increasingly common in software development. This way of
working, widely adopted by big corporations has been also
included lately in smaller organisations including SMEs.
The traditional product and software development
technologies do not correctly support this way of
working, e.g., time and cultural differences add new
requirements for these technologies. The Prisma project1
aims to provide the tools, experiences and guidelines to
help companies that face these issues in their everyday
project management. One of its main outcomes is the PSW
(Prisma Workbench). PSW is a platform and a set of tools
that addresses the issues that need to be overcome in
adoption of a collaborative and distributed development
in organisations. This paper will present the results of
the study performed during the Prisma Project and
highlight the features of the PSW that will facilitate
global collaborative software development teams to work
more effectively in this kind of environments
