summary
Shows how analysis of version-control (VCS) behavioral data, combined with social psychology concepts, can reveal organizational causes behind software problems that code alone hides. Describes methods to detect modules with high cross-team coordination needs, measure alignment between architecture and organizational structure, and use those signals to suggest and guide refactorings, illustrated with real-world case studies; also argues that Conway’s Law is an oversimplification.
