Abstract

Within software development, wikis are currently mainly used for brainstorming and documentation purposes or error management and project coor¬dination.This article describes four advanced application scenarios for wiki sup¬port in software development processes: Requirements Engineering, Traceability and Rationale Management, Architectural Knowledge Sharing, and Lessons Learned Management in a distributed knowledge infrastructure.Finally, we will give a conclusion by summarizing the main advantages and drawbacks of the pre¬sented innovative uses of wikis in software engineering.
