Main problems in teamwork
Suggest problems of (general) teamwork.
Suggest problems of software teams.
Suggest solutions to the problems you
mentioned.
Dilemmas in Teamwork
One of the team members does not work
on his/her task.
What are you doing?
Suggest additional dilemmas from your
own experience.

Cooperation in Software Development
What does it mean to cooperate in software projects?
What does it mean to compete in software projects?
What does one gain from cooperation?
When does one gain from competition?
Do people tend to cooperate/compete in software
projects? Why?
Cooperation in Software Development
Variations: What happens if one team members
competes and the others cooperate?
What happens if one team members
cooperates and the others compete?
TRUST is a key word!

The Prisoner’s Dilemma: The case of software engineering
Usually, team members are asked to cooperate.
Team members can’t verify that their cooperation
will reciprocate.
According to the Prisoner’s Dilemma: All team
members will compete.
In software development: Such behavior leads to
the worst results to all team members.
How cooperation and trust can be achieved?
Define a set of specific and clear activities
that all team members are committed to
apply.
Extreme programming (2000) has this
attribute.
This attribute may explain Extreme
Programming (2000) success.
Extreme Programming 12 practices
Note:nothing is new; gathering the practices together is XP uniqueness
Source: Beck, K. (2000). eXtreme Programming explained, Addison Wesley.
The Prisoner’s Dilemma: The case of eXtreme Programming
Team member’s commitment to work
according to XP ensures that: all work according to these practices all know that all the others also work according
to these practices the dilemma inherent at the prisoner’s dilemma
vanishes all be in the cooperation cell all rip the benefit from such a cooperation
The Prisoner’s Dilemma: The case of Extreme Programming – A and B’s perspective
B cooperates
A cooperates+5
The Prisoner’s Dilemma: Extreme Programming - Courage
Cooperation: e.g., alarm when a problem emerges,
admit when you need to learn something new.
Competition: find ways to hide such info.
All team members are committed to work according to
XP in general and this value in particular.
Team members do not face the dilemma of whether to
cooperate or not.
Team members cooperate (in the above sense) and
get the rip from the value of courage.
Kent Beck :
Kent Beck explains when XP is not appropriate:
"[i]t's more the social or business
environment. If your organization
punishes honest communications and you
start to communicate honestly, you'll be
destroyed." An interview with Kent Beck, June 17, 2003, Working smarter, not harder,
