| Abstract: | The importance of, and distinction between, problem and design spaces has been recognized in studies of information systems development (ISD). In this paper, the authors analyze processes followed by two developers engaged in a non-trivial development task using the object-oriented modeling techniques-with a view to understanding their use of, and explorations in, problem and design spaces. The authors' analysis provides evidence for a distinction between the two spaces, and interprets the developers' engagements and behaviors to structure the two spaces with the help of object-oriented modeling techniques. Several interesting findings emerge from the authors' analysis, including the overlapping of spaces due to the use of object-orientation. |
