Produktbeschreibung
During thirty years of history, planning, designing
and implementing the information systems have faced a
great deal of productivity problems. These
productivity problems include slipping schedules,
cost overruns and low systems quality with increased
maintenance costs.
In response to these productivity and quality
problems, researchers have developed different
methodical approaches.
Paradoxically, despite the efforts devoted to
methodical approaches, systems have continued to
fail. Only a few studies concentrate on empirical
research of the systems development process in the
organizational context.
This book therefore fills this gap by further
clarifying how systems development process is managed
in practice. This objective is reached by conducting
a series of empirical studies of two systems
development projects in an organization competing in
information technology business.
The studies should help shed some light on the
systems development and should be especially useful
to researchers and professionals in Information
Systems and Software Engineering fields, or anyone
else who may be considering to implement information
systems.
