Software Development and Game Theory
July 23, 2008 – 5:00 amAlistair Cockburn (pronounced co-burn) maintains that software development is a cooperative game.
Others have described software development as exactly the opposite, a game where the participants do not cooperate - see Analyzing Software Development as a Noncooperative Game (pdf).
I think I’m with Alistair on this one while the alternative point of view is interesting I think their argument is somewhat flawed.
