Abstract

The IS literature reveals considerable effort concerning the development of web-based systems. Particularly the differences and similarities between traditional systems development and web development and the applicability of traditional development methods are widely and controversially discussed. However, the discussions are still primarily based on normative arguments and lack support of empirical evidence (Eriksen, 2000).
