  The paper presents a framework for building theory from ISD practices. The framework locates ISD practices in a learning loop that is situated in a development context. The framework recognizes that ISD practices are related to their learned rationale that may come from previous experiences, i.e. observed impacts of practices, or from existing theory. These concepts recognized by the framework are needed for building theory from ISD practices, for designing research approaches for studying ISD, for evaluating existing research on ISD practices and for evaluating ISD methods. The framework is also used in the analysis of three recent studies on ISD practices and a discussion about the uses of the framework in research and in method development is included along with a set of possible research paths in the future.

In Song, William & Xu, Shenghua (Ed.), Information Systems Development. Asian Experiences. Springer Science+Business Media B.V.. ISSN 978-1-4419-7205-7. p. 399–410. Show summary

  This chapter discusses how systems development practices are shaped. Based on interviews conducted in ten development organizations and previous literature, we identify eight types of change paths in systems development practices: emergence, adoption, idealization, formalization, abandonment, informalization, entropy, and disobedience. We argue that the eight change path types provide an integrated theoretical framework on the study of how systems development practices change in organizations, projects, and among individual developers in a given context. We discuss how this framework complements existing theories and concepts of the contemporary literature on systems development.

Show summary

  This paper presents results from a grounded theory analysis of method deployment in five small and medium sized system development organizations. The study confirms some observations from earlier research, such as the impact of project size and individual attitude and experience of developers. In addition, organisational factors, such as type of business, development goals, history of method use, employee turnover, geographical distribution and customer relationship, may explain method deployment decisions.

  This paper discusses how systems development practices are shaped. Based on interviews conducted in 10 development organizations and previous literature, we identify eight types of change paths in systems development practices: emergence, adoption, idealization, formalization, abandonment, informalization, entropy, and disobedience. We argue that the eight change path types provide an integrated theoretical framework on the study of how systems development practices change in organizations, projects, and among individual developers in a given context. We discuss how this framework complements existing theories and concepts of the contemporary literature on systems development.

  This paper documents the development of an agent-based patient scheduling system prototype, focusing on the methodological process rather than the resulting system. As such, one of the authors of this article, inexperienced within agent technologies built the prototype during one university semester, reporting all challenges and experiences. The conclusions from this work show that the theoretical benefits of the agent-oriented approach can be realized by ?normal? developers but emphasize the importance of tool support to handle challenges involving agent interaction and abstraction gaps.
