Abstract: | The relationship between systems - regarded as a branch of technology - and people is described. Modern man is surrounded by procedural systems,often highly formalized and at least partially computerized. Systems are by their nature intangible and not directly visible. Indirect representation via system models is required to make a system visible,so that it can be properly understood,shaped and controlled.Making a business information and computer system more visible will often make it more effective or efficient. |
