Abstract: | The practice of software development lends itself to examining the ways that "systems of people and machines (are), situated and distributed, and most of all, deeply heterogeneous". Like any other social activity the work of designing and developing software is situated in the sense of taking place in specific locations and being performed by people who act from their specific context of knowledge, tools, tasks, colleagues, (organizational) memory, and history. |
