Excerpt from Towards an Axiomatic Approach to Information Systems Development
Our discussion of productivity pertains to the reduction in time and cost involved in all four phases of building an information system (specification, design, implementation and maintenance). We include in the term information system any computer-based system used to store, analyze and present information. This includes the spectrum of systems from operational examples such as payroll accounting to decision support systems for strategic planning.
The purpose of this paper is to present a systematic method for whittling down construction time and cost; this is to be achieved by strategically reducing the number of alternatives that a system builder must evaluate when constructing an information system.

Verkäuferbewertung 4 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book challenges the prevailing idea that the construction of information systems is an algorithmic process that can be improved incrementally. Instead, the author proposes that the process is largely axiomatic in nature, and that dramatic improvements can be made by applying certain fundamental principles to the process of system design. The author provides several axioms which can be applied to each phase of a system's construction, and which can be used to evaluate the viability of potential designs. He then provides several theorems which can be used to increase productivity in each phase, and provides examples of how to apply them effectively. In the author's view, these axiomatic approaches can dramatically improve the efficiency of information system construction. If widely adopted, they could lead to major improvements in system design and implementation. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 9781332247424_0
