Abstract
This contribution attempts to take a systematic look at the methods and tools for the design and construction of Software/Information System (ISs) of today and the future. Development of an ISs is a set of many complex and inter-related activities. These activities are shaped not only by the information technology, but also by the business need and trends. The paper provides a (conceptual) framework that the author found very useful while thinking about different aspects and activities of IS development, methods prescribing these activities and tools that support them. The paper also tries to “predict the future” of the methods and tools by taking into account the new developments in the areas of distributed computing and the Internet.
