Abstract
A brief examination is made of the relationship of information system, design methodologies, and associated information processing technology. Historical perspectives are highlighted. The data processing systems is first examined from the standpoint of the application of technology. Areas of data management, centralization and distribution, data integrity and controls, cost-capacity progress, and applications software development are reviewed. The user system is next considered as a locus of a large complement of current research activities. The perspectives related to the user role in system development and the evaluation criteria in the design and development process are addressed. Finally, development and operating methodologies are considered as an important dimension of the information systems impact in organizations. The methodological views and development procedure approaches are presented as critical factors impacting the evolution of information systems in organizations.Keywords
