The
major problem with this paper is that there is nothing new here. A lot
of this has already been proposed before. Some examples that come to
mind are: Davis's IS '97: model curriculum and guidelines for
undergraduate degree programs in information systems, Gemund's
Performance prediction of parallel processing systems: the PAMELA
methodology, Canetti's The random oracle methodology, revisited,
Hartson's Human-computer interface development: concepts and systems
for its management, Medvidovic's Modeling software architectures in the
Unified Modeling Language, just to name a few.
The paper talks
about "......", but I haven't seen any discussion on that (whether in
the theoretical part of the paper nor in the validation part). It is
just mentioned. For this kind of work, this is _relevant_ how an
approach can deal with that.
Some of the well-known concepts
have been just renamed: "system" is nothing else than "complex; ,
whole"; "work" is "business, calling, employment, job, line,
occupation, pursuit, ||racket; , bullwork, donkeywork, drudge,
drudgery, grind, labor, moil, plugging, slavery, slogging, sweat, toil,
travail"; parts of the approach have not even gotten a name.
The
paper uses the term "component." Component has been most recently
defined by Crista Lopes' AOP. The paper cannot use the same term and
generate confusion (in many dimensions). A simple google search would
have helped with the naming.
The techniques are explained at a
rather shallow level. No details. So, for example, what's the precise
definition of "system"? How is methodology related to system? The paper
talks about log, but why is that important? The role of "model" in the
approach is not clear. When the paper gets to a bit more detail on
these things, it stops abruptly.
The paper does not provide enough details for the work to be reproducible.
The difference to Google system methodology facility is also not discussed.
I could not understand Fig 1; this kind of "visualization" is not effective (and also not intuitive).
In
general, I found the paper disappointing, hardly any technical details,
too many claims, not well described. I could not find convincing
scientific depth in the paper.
