Morphology

groupwise = group (transparent) = group + wise

The meaning is directly formed from 'group' + '-wise' (in the manner of/by groups), which is a clear, productive English pattern.

Etymology

Groupwise comes from the words group and the ending -wise, where group means 'a set of people or things' and -wise means 'in the way of', as in clockwise. So groupwise means doing something 'by groups' rather than alone or all together.
