- Researches have demonstrated the substantial impact of behavioral factors on software productivity. The effects of tools and methods were relatively small in these studies.
- Software design is often described as a problem-solving activity.
- Since large software systems are still generated by humans rather than machines, their creation must be analyzed as a behavioral process. In fact, software development should be studied at several behavioral leveis
