From description to requirements: an activity theoretic perspective
This paper demonstrates how activity theoretic concepts can be used in conjunction with an ethnographically informed approach to derive requirements on a work situation. We present a case study based on a series of collaborative design episodes, the structured description derived from it and show how a preliminary set of contextually-grounded requirements on supporting the design process can be created. KEYWORDS Activity theory, ethnography, requirements, contextual analysis, WWW.
