	description = {Welcome to IEEE Xplore 2.0: Shared Mental Models among Open Source Software Developers},
	abstract = {Shared understandings are important for software development as they guide effective individual contribu- tions and coordination of the software development proc- ess. However, it is not clear if such understandings can be developed in highly distributed groups that do not regu- larly meet face-to-face. In this paper, we present the re- sults of a preliminary analysis of shared mental models within a Free/Libre Open Source Software (FLOSS) de- velopment team. We analyzed mental models using cogni- tive mapping and process analysis and compared the models of four developers from the Apache Lucene Java project. Our analysis suggests that there is a high level of sharing among core developers but the sharing is not complete, with some differences related to tenure and role in the project. Finally, we suggest directions for further research on shared mental models in FLOSS teams.},

	abstract = {The apparent success of free/libre open source software (FLOSS) development projects such as Linux, Apache,
and many others has raised the question, what lessons from FLOSS development can be transferred to mainstream
software development? In this paper, we use coordination theory to analyze coordination mechanisms
in FLOSS development and compare our analysis with existing literature on coordination in proprietary
software development. We examined developer interaction data from three active and successful FLOSS
projects and used content analysis to identify the coordination mechanisms used by the participants. We found
that there were similarities between the FLOSS groups and the reported practices of the proprietary project
in the coordination mechanisms used to manage task-task dependencies. However, we found clear differences
in the coordination mechanisms used to manage task-actor dependencies. While published descriptions of
proprietary software development involved an elaborate system to locate the developer who owned the relevant
piece of code, we found that “self-assignment” was the most common mechanism across three FLOSS projects.
This coordination mechanism is consistent with expectations for distributed and largely volunteer teams. We
conclude by discussing whether these emergent practices can be usefully transferred to mainstream practice
and indicating directions for future research.},
