Description
Success during software development depends on the creativity of software engineers. Knowledge plays a very important role in enhancing the creativity of software developers. Knowledge is available in different forms like repository knowledge (experiences of past projects) and community knowledge (gained through communication among software engineers). I have developed a tool which could help software engineers be more creative and successful. In order to develop this tool, a systematic literature review was undertaken to find how knowledge influences creativity and the key features required in the tool. The systematic literature review reports the various knowledge sources and how these can be accessed by developers to be more creative, and the methods used to access the knowledge sources. This paper describes the motivation for the tool, features of the tool and improvements for the next version of the tool.
