Sinossi

This book considers how technological advancements impact organizational structures, using software development as a study. The author examines companies that have taken a 'factory' approach to software development, with much of the discussion comparing American and Japanese software production during the 1980s. The book draws on extensive interviews and data collected from surveys at the time. The research presented suggests that technological maturity alone may not drive producers to adopt more efficient means of production. The author instead argues that management decisions are influential in choosing appropriate organizational structures and strategies, which can lead to efficiency gains in product development.
