<Keith>there are fundamental problems to do with human work management which can and will scupper you however good your notations are, and however well you use them. /Keith>
Indeed even though I have good theory that could truly make difference from a turtle to a rabbit in terms of speed, but my theory is useless if I can not collaborate with others. "Chemistry" and inter personal skills are important. You have done some valuable work I can see. I do not know if you have referenced Drucker's knowledge worker and Verna Allee's value network. I think these ideas are relevant. <Keith> Further, I know from experience that solving these management problems leads you quite naturally to choice of design notations and methodology (surprising perhaps, but true) - and once you get there, you find that the 75/50 rule no longer applies. In fact, for this reason Steve's work on WS-CDL and my own on HIM may well be converging.</Keith> I do not agree that good elaboration leads to good methodology. It is unlikely. As Einstein said experience do not lead to theory. Theory only results from mental construct. Even by chance human collaboration leads to good methodology, it is inefficient because things that can be automated are not. The forming of methodology requires subject matter knowledge, experience, systems theory, philosophy, intensive abstraction which are normally different tasks from what is actually doing suchas writing software.
