Book Information Requirements Determination

Download or read book Information Requirements Determination written by John R. Valusek and published by . This book was released on 1985 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research has suggested that the requirements process be divided into two phases: IRD and IRA. There appears to be sufficient evidence to warrant additional investigation of the IRD phase using the model of inconsistency portrayed in this effort. Inconsistency appears to be a matter of perspective. From an analyst's point of view, the variation in users' needs constitutes inconsistency. From a user's point of view, the variation may be a fact of life resulting from perceptions of need that arise from a dynamic environment. This research is an initial attempt to document the requirements process from a user's perspective and to provide the user some external assistance to attempt to reduce the variation in perceptions of needs. It may be that the perceptions of needs always constitute a requirement from the individual's perspective and that the sorting of requirements from wishes must remain the responsibility of the referee. Perhaps tools oriented to both those roles: That of the user and that of the refereee, are necessary. The requirements formulation scratchpad (RFS), as a prototype tool to help the user in the problem formulation phase of information requirements determination, was too complex for the research environment of this study. Based on suggestions from this initial investigation, the second generation of the RFS will be much simpler in design.

Book Transforming Organizations

Download or read book Transforming Organizations written by Thomas A. Kochan and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1992-02-06 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines how organizations can, and should, transform their practices to compete in a world economy. Research results from a multi-disciplinary team of MIT researchers, along with the experiences and insights of a select group of industry practitioners, are integrated into a model that stresses the need for systemic and transformative rather than piecemeal or incremental changes in organization practices and public policy. This integration of research and experience results in an argument for a new organizational learning model--one capable of gaining advantage from employee diversity, cooperation across organizational boundaries, strategic restructuring, and advanced technology. The book begins with a foreword by Lester C. Thurow.

Book Critical Issues in Systems Theory and Practice

Download or read book Critical Issues in Systems Theory and Practice written by K. Ellis and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 684 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The systems movement, now 40 years old, is made up of many associations of systems thinkers from different disciplines all over the world. The United Kingdom Systems Society (UKSS) was formed in 1978. Today it has over 300 members and is committed to the development and promotion of "systems" philosophy, theory, concepts and methodolo gies for improving decision making for the benefit of organizations and wider society. The first UKSS International Conference was held at the University of Hull in July ofHuddersfield 1989. Since then we have held International Conferences at the Universities (1991) and Paisley (1993). The UKSS International Conferences are now an established biannual event and this, our fourth international conference, will be jointly hosted by the Universities of Hull and Humberside. Systems science is considered to be a trans-discipline which promotes critical and effective intervention in complex organisational and social problem situations. As such it traverses "hard", through "soft" to "critical" systems thinking and methodologies. Yet, despite the currently robust state of the UKSS the systems movement cannot be described as an international movement: different subdisciplines are at different stages of development and are often engaged in pursuing their own particular interests and themes with little "conversation" between the subdisciplines despite their common interest in systems.
