Opis

Like it or not, IT Projects have been plagued by poor success rates, largely due to the poor elicitation and analysis of user requirements. Further, a heavy reliance upon prior experience among professionals using extant methods has impeded the entry of newly qualified analysts and designers to the industry, further reducing productivity and success rates. The Activity Theoretic Systems Architecture methodology (ATSA) is designed to provide end-to-end systems analysis and design guidance, with techniques that can be modified and lightened as analyst experience grows. This volume presents the book which details the driving philosophy, underlying theory and the development narrative of ATSA in its original form, together with a brief overview of the latest Object Oriented variant, ATSA:OO in its final appendix.

O autorze

Dr Brown created the ATSA methodology during his Ph.D studies at the University of Wollongong, Australia. His ongoing research agenda includes the extension and refinement of the ATSA methodology and he has been actively teaching it to second year Information Systems undergraduates over the last several years, to their considerable benefit.
