  ABSTRACT: The execution process is critical to the success of a software outsourcing service. It defines the major roles and activities involved in delivering the outsourced software. This paper presents a process-oriented software outsourcing decision approach, which helps a client selecting appropriate vendors and defining the execution process that both the client and the vendors should comply with during the software outsourcing execution phase. First, decision impact factors are defined, which take into consideration characteristics of the project, of the client and of the vendors. For any given project, the value of each decision impact factor is acquired by sending a questionnaire to the stakeholders on both client and vendors sides. Then, the process decision based on factor values is conducted using genetic algorithm so that an optimized solution for vendor selection and process definition are generated. Simulation of the decision activity is conducted and it preliminarily verifies the feasibility of the approach.

  ABSTRACT: Software outsourcing has become a common method used in many IT companies to reduce development cost, increase development efficiency and concentrate limited resource on mainstream business and technology. One of the important software engineering problems under this background is how to form an outsourcing software development process, which sum up all the people, artifacts, methods, working flows in outsourcing development field to provide instructive process guidance. On the analysis of different kinds of software outsourcing patterns, this paper puts up a RUP based software outsourcing process framework, which include outsourcing patterns exiting in main stages in software life circle, such as requirement outsourcing, design outsourcing, implement outsourcing, testing outsourcing etc. Because of the particularity in the field of software outsourcing, RUP is not completely suit for the outsourcing software development, an extension and customization to RUP is necessary. A detail requirement and design process description is illustrated in this paper.
