A software process for management software systems

ALFS T. BERZTISS · 1996

The business world of today is characterized by very rapidly changing business conditions that require rapid responses. The responses are to be results of decision making, supported by carefully designed management software systems. This paper is a position statement that discusses various factors to be considered in the definition of a software process for developing such systems. Since the rapid change will extend to management software, the software process is to allow rapid configuration of new systems from existing components, and rapid reconfiguration of existing systems. Because the boundary between decision support systems and other classes of business-oriented software is becoming increasingly blurred, we use the term management software systems in preference to decision support systems.
