This paper explores the relationships between jazz and the development of information systems. Similarities are drawn between music in general and information systems development methodologies and jazz is taken as a specific focus. The idea of music as an information system in its own right is outlined. As systems development methodologies move from formal approaches towards more ad hoc forms, the lessons that can be learned from jazz, such as improvisation and shared meaning, may become increasingly useful.

Information Systems Development

Didėjanti konkurencija verčia įmones plėsti informacinių sistemų (IS) taikymo sritis. Taip pat daugėja sistemas naudojančių asmenų, keičiasi technologijos, todėl išskirtinai tampa aktualu sukurti ir įgyvendinti vartotojams priimtiną ir patogią bendravimo su IS formą. Vartotojų nepripažinta sąsaja – viena iš svarbių priežasčių, darančių įtaką, kad IS projektai žlugtų. Todėl geriausias būdas šioms problemoms spręsti yra į sistemos kūrimo darbus kuo plačiau įtraukti vartotojus.Straipsnyje nagrinėjama organizacijos informacinių sistemų plėtra, remiamasi tradiciniu funkciniu požiūriu ir plėtros procesui darančia įtaką komponentų integracija, koncentruojamas dėmesys į vartotoją. Vartotojo vaidmuo sistemos plėtros procese nagrinėjamas atsižvelgiant į IS projektų žlugimo priežastis ir akcentuojant tuos darbų barus, kuriuose eilinio vartotojo patirtis ir nuomonė yra būtina. Kai eiliniai vartotojai ir informacinių sistemų specialistai nebendradarbiauja, sukurtos sistemos neveiksmingos. Straipsnis parengtas remiantis literatūros analize ir darbo autorės atlikto tyrimo rezultatais.Users in information systems development processOna Barčkutė SummaryInformation systems (IS) play an important role in today’s organizations. The usage of everyone IS must increase the efficiency of organization activities. Right systems development helps us achieve this goal. So, the development process for today’s information systems need a framework with integrate viewpoint and system users perspective assigning especial role them. Any useful information system can‘t be developed without systems users and builders properly collaboration.

Positive Agreement

When is an information system development outcome considered a success and when is it considered a failure? What factors contribute to a conclusion of either success or failure? How does the situation arise to create the environment which contributes to the above conclusions? Generally, an information system is considered a success when it does what it is supposed to and/or the user is satisfied with the system’s performance in support of the information-providing and decision-making responsibilities. Naturally, this area is fraught with the problems inherent in divergent interpretations of “what it is supposed to do,” “satisfaction,” and “systems performance.” Suffice it to say, when the systems developer and user are in positive agreement about these interpretations, the information system development outcome may be considered successful.

Modelling Techniques

This paper discusses the idea that even though information systems development (ISD) approaches have long advocated the use of integrated organisational views, the modelling techniques used have not been adapted accordingly and remain focused on the automated information system (IS) solution. Existing research provides evidence that business process simulation (BPS) can be used at different points in the ISD process to provide better integrated organisational views that aid the design of appropriate IS solutions. Despite this fact, research in this area is not extensive; suggesting that the potential of using BPS for the ISD process is not yet well understood. The paper uses the findings from three different case studies to illustrate the ways BPS has been used at different points in the ISD process. It compares the results against IS modelling techniques, highlighting the advantages and disadvantages that BPS has over the latter. The research necessary to develop appropriate BPS tools and give guidance on their use in the ISD process is discussed.

Executive Information System

This article discusses two communication issues associated with the development of an Executive Information System. The first issue examines the natural communication between systems designers and the executive end-user. The second issue addresses the human-computer interaction between the computer and the executive. Top executives constitute a unique group of end-users, and systems designers should exercise a wide range of skills in the process of identifying needs and presenting information to them.

Student Teams

The success of information systems development activities are influenced by technology and human resources. Experience and knowledge of team members is the key to performance improvements in the software development process. So the experience and knowledge are considered to be one of the main capitals in the success of a software development team. However, what if the information system development team are students who may not have experience at all ? Is the information system developed by an un-experienced team always fail ? Therefore, it is necessary to conduct a study to identify the factors that influence the student teams in information systems development project. The study was conducted with the literature study to establish research model. Furthermore, a survey conducted by distributing questionnaires to students of information systems whom are doing an internship in developing information systems. The results of the survey were analyzed quantitatively using Partial Least Square technique to test the proposed research model. The results of this study indicate that the development of information systems conducted by a team of students is significantly influenced by the Customer Relationship and Horizontal Relationship. Capability factor have a significant effect although the effect is small on the student teams.

This chapter explores how Dooyeweerd’s philosophy might help us understand the challenges and issues in ISD as they are seen from an everyday perspective. The information system that is developed includes both the technical artefact or system and the human context of its use, which is often organisational. The communities of practice and research in this area include those involved in programming, system design, systems analysis, organisational analysis, knowledge elicitation, modelling, and many more. First this chapter reviews the history of ISD and paradigms, and shows briefly why a new paradigmatic approach might be useful. Then it applies Dooyeweerd’s notion of multi-aspectual functioning to understand what goes on in ISD, and derives a tentative framework for understanding it.
