Human Factors in Systems Development: Traditional vs. Non-Traditional Development Approaches
Eugene H. Ross · Proceedings of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society Annual Meeting · 1984
A project team involved in large scale computer system development usually has a prescribed or traditional approach to guide them in accomplishing their task. This approach is influenced by system development standards. There are situations though, where business requirements dictate the need to revise the approach. The present paper addresses both the traditional and non-traditional methods of approach for the large scale computer project. It also describes the key role the human factors specialist plays in either approach.
