my name is Benjamin Mach and I’m a student of computer science at the FAU Erlangen-Nürnberg. For my bachelor thesis, I want to prepare measurement software for collaboration within software organizations that collaborate (potentially over intra-organizational boundaries) using software forges. For the models we want to use, it is important that I collect data about the structure of the organizations.
I read about a strategy of resolving the missing hierarchy through delimiters. (e.g. maingroup-subgroup1-subgroupofsubgroup3) Is this common practice for you and if not, how do you handle this?
Thank you for your time.
Best regards,
Benjamin Mach
