Systems Development: Possibilities for and Obstacles to Changing Practice
Finn Kensing · DAIMI Report Series · 1985
Too little time, too few people, and too poor techniques and tools are frequent explanations of why a system development project does not come up to expectations. This article will discuss some other explanations centering around two concepts: approaching the product and handling project situations. The article is partly inspired by Schön's studies of how various professionals think when they work, and partly by my own studies of the working practices of computer specialists.
