摘要: Abstract Context The increased use of Open Source Software (OSS) affects how software-intensive product development organizations (SIPDO) innovate and compete, moving them towards Innovation (OI). Specifically, software engineering tools have the potential for OI, but require better understanding regarding what to develop internally acquire from outside organization, cooperate with competitors. Aim This paper aims at synthesizing a theory openness in SIPDOs, that can be utilized by managers defining more efficient strategies OSS communities. Method We synthesize empirical evidence systematic mapping study, case survey, using narrative method. synthesis method entails four steps: (1) Developing preliminary synthesis, (2) Exploring relationship between studies, (3) Assessing validity (4) Theory formation. Result present relation constructs: Strategy, Triggers, Outcomes, Level openness. Conclusion reasons provides opportunities reduce cost time. Furthermore, OI positively impacts on process innovation, it requires investment By betting openness, may able significantly increase their competitiveness.
