The Role of Object-Oriented Modelling - Dawson, Swatman (1999)   (Correct)

....in Context In order to understand the use of object oriented models by practising professionals we must set the bounds of the research and data collection by determining the unit of analysis the entity about which we want to gather data and the context of that entity within each case study. Yin [40] suggests that the unit of analysis defines the case in a case study. He suggests five possible units of analysis: individuals . decisions . programs . implementation processes . organisational change The choice of the unit of analysis in a study is related to the way the questions and ....

....the questions and propositions are defined. In one sense, this project is concerned with all of the above units of analysis but the main unit of analysis is the individual experienced requirements engineer or analyst, although within the context of four other elements derived from Yin s elements [40](see Figure 2) Figure 2 unit of analysis the analyst requirements engineer in context . The analyst is working in an organisation which has adopted object oriented methods for system development. The analyst will be influenced by how the organisation has gone about implementing that change. ....

Structured-case: A methodological framework for building.. - Carroll, Swatman (2000)   (Correct)

....rigorous IS case studies using positivist [11] 12] and interpretivist [13] 14] paradigms have been presented in the literature. These works outline what is needed, rather than how to achieve it. Strategies have been suggested for performing case study research (Yin s case study protocol [15]) and building theory from case studies (Eisenhardt s eight step roadmap [6] but these do not adequately describe the theory building process. Inducing theory from qualitative data is adaptive and highly iterative; neither of these strategies suggests the flexibility and opportunism required ....

....characteristics of the research phenomena, context and project. Obviously, building theory from qualitative data is much more complex than simply following a structure or framework; we argue, however, that structuredcase is a valuable extension to existing research frameworks (such as those of [6][15]) and is specifically directed towards the interpretivist, rather than positivist, paradigm. Secondly, structured case assists researchers in achieving and demonstrating high quality qualitative research. There are various descriptions of the requirements for inducing theory from interpretivist ....

A Research Methods Course in IT - Martin Olivi Er   (Correct)

....the course. Section 5 concludes the paper. 2 Background Many books have been written about specific research methods and many of those methods are applicable to Information Technology. Examples include surveys (see [2] for an example) experiments (see [3] for an example) case studies (see [8] for an example) and many more. In most cases such books are useful to the student in Information Technology, although they often include variations of those methods that are seldomly seen in Information Technology research. A skilled researcher is often able to ignore those variations, but this ....

....who should implement new requirements in an existing system. The selected approach has been to collect data about the prediction developers made for each requirement and compare that prediction with the actual changes made to the system. The study was designed as an embedded single case study [16] in an industrial setting (in vivo) with two units of analysis; releases R4 and R6. The study object was the PMR system, which is object oriented and implemented in C . The motivation behind the selection of study object is that it was a natural step as we studied and documented the development ....

Using Case Studies to Evaluate Learning Technologies - Baher, Ma (1999)   (Correct)

What we hope they illustrate, is how qualitative inquiry can help us develop richer understandings of complex human phenomena.

Its weaknesses include difficulty in generalising for it can be restricted to a single organisation [8] Our fundamental reason for selecting the approach is that a case study enables an investigation to retain the holistic and meaningful characteristics of a real world situation. Yin [9] contends that a good research design has five important components, which require enhancement with respect to the characteristics of our proposed case study. We next outline each component of our design. These components demand the development of a preliminary theory related to the topic of ....

The selected approach was to detect and analyze changes made to source code after the fact that all changes have been made and the system is released and to use the result as feedback to the planning process. The study was designed as an embedded single case study [16] in an industrial setting (in vivo) with two units of analysis. The study object was thePMR system, which is object oriented and implemented in C . The motivation behind the selection of study object was first, that we already have a baseline describing several releases of the sys 5 tem in ....

Keeping A Global Technology Working: A Study Into The - Social And Technical   (Correct)

....identified earlier by Nelson as a singularly important source of information. This study employed a qualitative case study methodology. As Yin explains, such a methodology is preferable for studying contemporary events and social situations that are comprised of complex relationships [14]. The case study group was the technical staff of a public broadcast radio station in a small Pacific Island country. The station employed 22 staff at the time of the research, four of whom were technical staff. Data gathering in the field consisted of participant observation, interviews and ....

A Coordination Theory Approach to Process Description and.. - Crowston, Osborn (1998)   (Correct)

.... that analysts will necessarily agree on the mechanisms used in a particular site (although one should at least recognize the set proposed by another analyst) In our own work, we draw on four field based research traditions: grounded theory [7] ethnographic research [19] case study research [21] and the clinical perspective in fieldwork [16] We have found these perspectives useful because they focus on the categories and terms that process participants themselves use to describe the process while imposing a minimum level of external preconceptions on process representation. The methods ....

....that processes are designed to solve are open to definition by interpretation [20] subjective verification may be the best consistencycontrol available to field teams. From a research design point of view, the dangers of subjective verification, even by multiple respondents, are well known [21]. It is important to recognize, however, that managers and other professionals working within organizations face the same limitations in understanding observed behavior: for them, low level subjective consensus represents one key mechanism whereby groups jointly interpret events. Iterative, ....

....in this study can be characterized as an explorative qualitative case study approach. A case study is an empirical enquiry that investigates a contemporary phenomenon within its real life context, which is especially useful when the boundaries between phenomenon and context are not clearly evident [33]. This has certainly been the case in this work, since the focus has been on IT systems within a LEMP context, which involves a mixture of traditional business with ecommerce activities. The context also implies an inter organizational setting that precludes a delineation based on company borders. ....

Empirical Evaluation of Software Maintenance Technologies - Lanubile (1997)   (Correct)

....concern is encouraged by Kitchenham (1996) who uses quantitative evaluation as a synonym for objective evaluation and qualitative evaluation as a synonym for subjective evaluation. However, this position is not supported by the literature in the other scientific fields (Judd, 1991) Lee, 1989) (Yin, 1994). Qualitative data can be collected with an equally rigorous process as quantitative data. The ability of expressing a concept in numbers or in verbal propositions influences the way controlled deductions are made: statistics for quantitative analysis and logic for qualitative analysis. The ....

Legacy Systems Assessment to Support Decision Making - Cimitile, Fasolino, Lanubile   (Correct)

....The random error reflects nonsystematic factors that can influence the measurement. Using the same example of measuring user satisfaction through questionnaires, the random error includes things such as decline of concentration when answering, and inability to fully understand the questions. Yin [Yin94] suggests three tactics to maximize the construct validity: triangulation, chain of evidence, and key informants as reviewers. The first tactic, triangulation, is related to measure the construct of interest in different ways and then cross checking the results to if they converge or not. ....

....teams over time and used multiple methods across a range of qualitative and quantitative sources of data. In combination, the approach is able to acknowledge the complexity of researching distributed teams. Exploring multiple virtual teams over time increases the external validity of the findings [26]. Although single case studies can provide much greater depth of knowledge about team dynamics, the ability to compare across teams helps differentiate idiosyncratic behavior from patterns that are likely to be found again. Having co located observers helped immensely, as it 10 enabled ....

....to be the highest, the contribution of GIS to social change. Onsrud, Pinto, and Azad (1992) reported that case study methodology often is criticized for its apparent lack of rigor, hypothesis generation capacity, cross comparability, validity, and replication. However, they and others (Lee 1989, Yin 1989) demonstrated that rigor can be achieved through the use of formalized measurement protocols. Therefore, the case study URISA Journal n Sieber 19 methodology combined observations structured with a case study protocol, interview instruments for open ended interviews with key personnel, and ....
