Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic, widely acknowledged as the most significant
global health crisis of this century, has impacted virtually every
sector, including software development. This unprecedented situation has
led to significant implications for software projects and the
professionals involved in software development, presenting substantial
challenges. The primary objective of this study is to systematically
analyze the evolving research trends within the Global Software
Engineering (GSE) field. This study focuses on examining whether the
global pandemic has led to an increased emphasis on software design
research. Furthermore, we investigate the existing gap in social
interaction during the software design phase of development. The
research methodology consists of a two-phase systematic analysis of the
existing literature. In the first phase involves the mapping of GSE
research conducted over the two decades preceding the pandemic
(2000-2020). In the second phase, this study employed a forward
snowballing approach to review literature related to the software design
phase published between 2020 and 2022. The analysis of 592 research
studies in these two phases reveals various trends in GSE research.
Evaluation research stands out as the most extensively explored research
type across methods, processes, and human aspects of development.
Despite the considerable impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, which led to
an increased reliance on distributed teams, our findings suggest that,
while software organizations have been extensively studied across all
software engineering phases, the software design phase remains one of
the least explored areas. Our contribution envisions a more
collaborative and adaptable GSE field, providing guidance for future
research endeavors aimed at supporting distributed teams.
