Justification and Interlaced Knowledge at ATLAS, CERN
研究了CERN的ATLAS探测器这一复杂技术系统的出现过程，发现初始架构选择通过论证与反论证循环产生交织知识，边界基础设施作为共同知识基础，帮助参与者协调技术选择、处理潜在依赖并减少集成故障。
We report on a longitudinal study of the emergence of the ATLAS detector, a complex technological system developed at CERN, Geneva. Our data show that the coordination of initial architectural choices was driven by cycles of contestation and justification that resulted in the creation of what we term interlaced knowledge—pockets of shared knowledge interwoven within and across subsystem communities at ATLAS. We also found that these justifications were possible because of the presence of a boundary infrastructure that served as a common substrate of knowledge for all ATLAS participants. Together, the boundary infrastructure and interlaced knowledge enabled participants to make co-oriented technological choices, address latent interdependencies, and minimize the incidence and severity of glitches when integrating the various subsystems.
