| Abstract: | Systems development is, fundamentally, a problem-solving activity. a problem in an application domain is transformed by the systems development process into a solution in the computer's implementation domain. What can systems development specialists borrow from traditional literature on problem solving? Are there ideas in this order discipline that can be reused? There is one particularly vital notion that has important implications for both the theory and practice of systems development.The problem- solving literature distinguishes between "strong" and "weak" problem-solving approaches. |
