MUDdling Through
The worlds project is concerned with developing next-generation collaboration frameworks. We strohgly believe that real progress in enhancing the usability of collaborative systems hinges on improving our understanding of work, and applying the resulting insights to development of collaborative work support frameworks. We are investigating the thesis that appropriate bases for such an approach ...
متن کاملMuddling Through: Noisy Equilibrium Selection
This paper examines an evolutionary model in which the primary source of ``noise'' that moves the model between equilibria is not arbitrarily improbable mutations but mistakes in learning. We model strategy selection as a birth death process, allowing us to find a simple, closed-form solution for the stationary distribution. We examine equilibrium selection by considering the limiting case as t...
متن کاملMuddling Through: Noisy Equilibrium Selection1
This paper examines an evolutionary model in which the primary source of \noise" that moves the model between equilibria is not arbitrarily improbable mutations but mistakes in learning. We model strategy selection as a birth-death process, allowing us to ̄nd a simple, closed-form solution for the stationary distribution of the model even though we take the noise to be bounded away from zero. W...
متن کاملOn the Process of Software Design: Sources of Complexity and Reasons for Muddling through
Software design is a complex undertaking. This study delineates and analyses three major constituents of this complexity: the formative element entailed in articulating and reaching closure on a design, the progress imperative entailed in making estimates and tracking status, and the collaboration challenge entailed in learning within and across projects. Empirical data from two small to medium...
متن کاملOrgan donation and the ethics of muddling through
Organ donation offers opportunities for people in critical care units to help save the lives of other patients. It is not always easy, however, to handle the transition from treating a patient to preserving a potential donor, and organ donation consistently provokes ethical questions in critical care units. What do we expect ethics to deliver? In light of a recent ethics conference in Denmark, ...
