Abstract

Now a day’s trend toward software development is changed and Software organizations are distributing their development processes worldwide. Many organizations are interested in Global software development (GSD) as compared to in house development due to cheap human resources and to increase their revenue. Risk factor is also increased in GSD. In this study we will see how to mitigate the risk in requirement gathering phase of GSD.
