Abstract: | In the development and maintenance of information systems data processing tasks are assigned either to a computer or to a man. In this paper we consider five decisions made during the development phase. These decisions have an influence on the contents of jobs: 1. distribution of work between man and computer, 2. construction of man-computer interface, 3. grouping tasks into jobs, 4. design of control part of new information system, 5. assignment of people to jobs.During the use of an information system both the person and his job will change. Here various combinations of changes in a person-job pair are classified and analyzed.This research has been supported by the Academy of Finland. |
