The Stages Model and the Phases of the IS Field
本文提出一个描述信息系统领域历史阶段的模型，每个阶段由关键问题定义，可用于预测IS高管面临的新压力和研究教育方向，补充Nolan的组织计算机使用阶段模型。
We argue that the organization's internal time-path of computer usage should be located in a context of changes in the IS field as a whole. A model of the history of information systems management within user organizations is presented here, which specifies a series of phases the IS field has gone through. Each phase is defined by a critical problem or set of constraints. The phases model can be used to predict new pressures on IS executives and new directions for focusing research and education resources as well as supplementing Nolan's stages model of computer usage within organizations.
