Systematic Literature Review of Knowledge Sharing Barriers and Facilitators in Global Software Development Organizations Using Concept Maps <s> 3) MOTIVATION <s> The purpose of this research paper is to propose a knowledge sharing framework to manage software projects where employees working in different work location. To support the arguments made based on review literature, the paper presents the holistic framework of knowledge sharing in a software development company and also provides a model to solve the problem of knowledge sharing objections. The paper then applies the framework to study the existence of knowledge sharing process in a software development company to examine the effectiveness of knowledge sharing. <s> BIB001 </s> Systematic Literature Review of Knowledge Sharing Barriers and Facilitators in Global Software Development Organizations Using Concept Maps <s> 3) MOTIVATION <s> Abstract Although scholars have long studied knowledge sharing drivers within software development teams, our knowledge remains fragmented by the divergent efforts that are based on and contribute to theoretical perspectives. This study provides a review of the extant literature (1993–2011) on knowledge sharing drivers in software teams and establishes a classification framework using an organizational change perspective. A synthesis of the literature uncovers diverse themes and gaps in the existing body of knowledge, suggests several paths for advancing theory on knowledge sharing in software development contexts, and discusses implications for practitioners concerned with knowledge sharing in software development. <s> BIB002 </s> Systematic Literature Review of Knowledge Sharing Barriers and Facilitators in Global Software Development Organizations Using Concept Maps <s> 3) MOTIVATION <s> In the context of Global Software Development (GSD), team members face a number of challenges that needs to be solved. One of them relates to the transfer of knowledge needed to fulfil the required tasks. The knowledge transfer process may be organized and implemented in various ways, as companies use varying strategies to transfer knowledge from onsite to offshore sites. However, without effective knowledge management practices, success in GSD will be difficult. In this paper, we aims to identify the process activities of knowledge transfer in globally distributed teams, challenges and suitable solutions for effective knowledge transfer. In order to achieve this objective, a systematic literature review (SLR) of the existing knowledge transfer literature is conducted. Our findings describing the process of knowledge transfer in globally distributed teams, a set of challenges and recommended practices for effective knowledge transfer. Finally, we conclude this study with a discussion of the directions for further and future research. <s> BIB003 </s> Systematic Literature Review of Knowledge Sharing Barriers and Facilitators in Global Software Development Organizations Using Concept Maps <s> 3) MOTIVATION <s> ABSTRACTKnowledge sharing is the key factor that influences the performance of open source software (OSS) projects, which are the representative cases of distributed innovation. This paper aims to explore the mechanism of knowledge sharing in OSS projects from the perspective of developers in China. A quantitative method with the analysis of 403 valid questionnaires is adopted. A series of hypotheses about how distributed innovation (independent variables) influences knowledge sharing (mediating variable) and then affects the performance of OSS projects (dependent variable) are tested and approved. On the one side, we argue that developers will actively affect knowledge sharing in terms of participative motivation, social network and organisational culture. On the other hand, users may also affect the knowledge sharing when considering innovation willingness and capacity. It is interesting to find that social network is the most important factor in Chinese cases. It is strongly recommended to strengthen t... <s> BIB004
Individual motivation is the key factor which strongly influences KS. It was found in a survey that participative motivation is positively related to KS BIB004 . The studies BIB001 , BIB002 , BIB003 reported that self-motivation influences the KS process positively. It was found that individual's motivation impacted KS process. The study also reported that motivation to share knowledge is influenced by the quality of management  .
