Dialectical Inquiring Systems: A New Methodology for Information Science

Mitroff, Ian I.; And Others

Journal of the American Society for Information Science, 23, 6, 365-378, Nov-Dec 72

A taxonomy for modeling information systems is presented. Epistemology is used as a prescriptive modeling basis and it is shown how the different models can be made scientifically operational by using a special kind of systems analysis. Results of a preliminary experiment based on one of the models are presented. (60 references) (Author/KE)
