Social visualization in software development
Abstract
Most software development tools focus on supporting the primary technical work - writing code, managing requirements, filing bugs, etc. Yet with large teams, managing the social aspects of a project can be as complex as managing code. Here, we discuss the iterative design of a visualization that helps developers better understand the social aspects of their work.
