Paper Abstract:
|
A substantial definition of the Observation Act and of the Observers role in Information Systems prompted an analysis
made through this article. There are people or institutions that call upon them that Observers role, grounded by means of
acquired tacit and/or explicit Knowledge, but do not act or state as so. It is a type of action that intrinsically depends on
the degree of necessity of the acting systems, not having any orientation or formation as such, in terms of methodology,
implementation and interpretation of base concepts which would explain the reason of events and their Space Reality that
commonly proceed from a subjective and interdisciplinar intuitive ad-hoc root. Hence this theorical analysis presumed to
present a view to the establishment of an Observer characterization in Information Systems, unmasking disconnect but
convergent opinions from complementary scientific areas, also presenting the Space State Methods as an analytic system
base for such Observation. |
