Verkäuferbewertung 4 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the evolving social dynamics within systems development teams as computer-aided software engineering (CASE) tools gain prominence. The author examines how the introduction of CASE tools alters the division of labor, redistributing dependencies among project team members. These structural changes trigger a polarization between functional and technical team members, leading to resistance, territorialism, subculture formation, and resentment. Drawing on social theory, the book interprets these findings, highlighting the shifts in power dynamics that occur when information technology mediates production work. By analyzing the social implications of CASE tools, the author offers valuable insights into the interplay between technology, organizational structure, and human behavior in the context of systems development. The book contributes to our understanding of the social and organizational complexities surrounding the adoption of technology in the workplace. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
