Back to work, a little bit late.

   I'm managing a game project now later. All the team member in the project are from different country and time zone. As the leader of that project, I have to write a lot of plan, and I also have to tell everyone in the team what to do. That occupied my whole weekend. That spent much more time than I thought.
   Managing that project is quite similar with what we did now in this course. Actually, I got a lot of experience from that project.

   Now back to work!
   I start doing my part of unit test a little bit late. AJ and Omar have finished their job, I hope I wont bother them for being late.
   It's Tuesday midnight now, we need to finish the whole project tomorrow, and we may still need some time to put everything together, so I decide to stay up late today. I don't want bother my team mate.
   Also, I learnt a lot from AJ and Omar's code.
   Again, sorry about late, you guys did good jobs, my teammates.

We have assigned our tasks

For team project this week, we should decide everyone's job and make a plan.

I think our team leader is doing his job quite nice, every thing on website looks nice and in order.

I'm kind of too busy this quarter, so I can't spent too much time focusing on my homework, our team leader makes it much easier for me. Thanks him again! 

Next week, we are going to start writing the code, good luck！

I'm really busy, just back from abroad, but now I'm in Atlanta.

For the first two weeks of this quarter, I was in Tokyo, attended Tokyo Game Show.
After that, I have to go back to Shanghai, then flied to Chicago.
After I stayed in Chicago for 2 days to make all my homework up, I went to Atlanta.
So, I'm in Atlanta now.

I lead a game developing team on internet, which may spent me a lot of time.
I'm also planning to start my business before I graduating from the school this year.

In a word, I'm busy as hell now.

For this global developing course, I knew that I have to cooperate with others and do a lot of stuff. To do so many things together might be a big challenge to me. I hope everything will be fine.

Perforce Assignment

I used Perforce for several times in Prof Keenan's course, but I never really use some of the advanced function, so I used it as a FTP tool since this assignment.

This assignment taught us a lot about the usage of perforce, like branching, rolling back, merging, ect. I think it must be really help in the industry.

After this assignment, I find myself had a lack of knowledge of what a big project development in the industry was.

Some times, especially in the programming industry, communication may spent more time than you thought. More people may not mean faster in programming, so how to use the software like Perforce would be very important.

First Post

This is the Blogger for SE475 Global Software Development.
This is a very interesting course, it talk about the software development between different country and culture, which I think is a big tendency in the future.

My status now is also very interesting.
I'm a Chinese citizen.
I study in an American university.
My body is in Tokyo, Japan now.
In the course, we will study with the student from India.

How global it could be!
