Abstract
The main purpose of an Agile development method is to reduce risks, leading to a more successful and effective information system as it had overcome limitations faced in a traditional software development method. This reason lead many to adopt the Agile methodology, especially for global software development (GSD) projects. However, most are not aware of the risks introduced when using agile methods in GSD projects. The risks in GSD projects are dynamic due to factor multiplicity (e.g., multi-locations, multi-groups, multi-cultures, multi-technologies, and multi-standards). This study aims to distinguish the difference between two risk mitigation techniques as an overall technique in tackling the same issue, which is communication issues introduced by the geographical distance between two development teams.
