Home advantage (HA) in football, soccer is well documented in the literature; however, the explanation for such phenomenon is yet to be completed, as this paper demonstrates that it is possible to overcome such disadvantage through managerial planning and intervention (tactics), an effect so far absent in the literature. To accomplish that, this st...
In this work, we aim to analyze how attitude, self-efficacy, and altruism influence effort and active contributions on Wikipedia. We propose a new conceptual model based on the theory of planned behavior and findings from the literature on online communities. This model differs from other models that have been previously proposed by considering alt...
Initially, free software communities are characterized by selfmanagement, however, they were also influenced by public and private organizations that identified potential gains in the use of the geographically distributed production model.

As firms increasingly sanction an open sourcing strategy, the question of which open source project to undertake remains tentative. The lack of established metrics makes it difficult to formulate such strategy. While many projects have been formed and created, only a few managed to remain active. With the majority of these projects failing, firms n...
This paper reports early findings of a longitudinal study designed to evaluate the impact of changes in the intellectual property policy of 756 free and open source projects on their attractiveness over 44 months.
Open source communities such as the ones responsible for Linux and Apache became well known for producing, with volunteer labor innovating over the Internet, high-quality software that has been widely adopted by organizations.

Thousands of Free and Open Source Software Projects (FSP) were, and continually are, created on the Internet. This scenario increases the number of opportunities to collaborate to the same extent that it promotes competition for users and contributors, who can guide projects to superior levels, unachievable by founders alone. Thus, given that the m...
Milhares de Projetos de Software Livre (PSL) foram e continuam sendo criados na Internet. Esse cenário aumenta as oportunidades de colaboração tanto quanto acirra a concorrência por usuários e contribuidores, que elevariam esses projetos a níveis superiores aos que seriam alcançados por seus fundadores sozinhos. E dado que o aprimoramento por meio...

However, there is an even larger number of them that cannot overcome the initial step towards building an active community of users and developers. In this study, we investigated whether there are relationships between source code metrics and attractivene...
Organisations and individuals release source code on the Web to improve their software by attracting peers in the strategic move of " opensourcing" that has created thousands of open source projects (e.g., Eclipse-IBM, Thunderbird-Mozilla and Linux-Torvalds). Nevertheless, most of these projects fail to attract people and never become active. To mi...
This article argues that the literature has overlooked corporations' motivations to engage in open source development endeavors, though "going-open" strategies are becoming increasingly common in the market-place. Almost invariably, motivational studies on open source have focused on volunteers, creating an imbalance that favors the adopters of suc...

Is the Bazaar a step to the Cathedral? This essay points out that organizational sponsorship appears to be inseparable of commercial grade, long-lasting open source software; and discusses the implications of that for organizational theory (rise of firms) and open source practice (IT governance).
An organizational strategy to develop software has appeared in the market. Organizations release software source code open and hope to attract volunteers to improve their software, forming what we call an open source project. Examples of organizations that have used this strategy include IBM (Eclipse), SAP (Netweaver) and Mozilla (Thunderbird). Mor...
