The difference between waterfall and agile
What is...
Agile is an incremental and iterative approach;
Waterfall is a linear and sequential approach.
Agile separates a project into sprints; Waterfall divides a project into phases.
Agile helps complete many small projects; Waterfall helps complete one single project

Differences between Enterprise Software and Collaboration Software?
What is...
Enterprise software:
- Relatively rigid, focuses on larges business processes, handle enterprise core functions and customer in focus
Collaboration software:
- Relatively flexible, allow ad-hoc collaboration and set in the heart of the enterprise communication function
Difference between requirement specifications in plan based and agile processes.
What is…
Plan-based projects strive to early define requirements that are correct, unambiguous, complete, consistent, prioritized, verifiable, modifiable, and traceable.
Agile projects let requirements emerge over time through iterations and ongoing customer interaction.
The three types of cloud services?
What is...
SaaS (software as a service) Target group: end users.
PaaS (Platform as a service) Target group: Developers, External or internal
IaaS (Infrastructure as a service) Target group: infrastructure department or any one needs computing resources.
The three theories of resistance according to Markus M. L. (1983) in the text “power, politics and MIS implementation”
What is...
- the person or subunit may be believed to have resisted because of factors internal to the person or group, so the person’s behavior is determined internally.
- the person or group may believe to have resisted because of factors inherent in the application or system being implemented, so the people’s behavior are determine externally by the environment or by technology.
- People or group resist systems because of an interaction between characteristics related to the people and characteristics related to the systems.

3 pros and 3 cons of agile?
What is...
Pros:
More adaptive and applicable to almost any project in some way, as well as more welcoming to changing requirements late in the development
Frequent feedback (iterative development, frequent testing, focus on working software rather than documentation)
Self-organizing teams (high autonomy, focus on responding to change rather than following a plan)
People are more involved in the whole process and therefore more motivated
Cons:
Poor resource planning.
Limited documentation.
Fragmented output.
No finite end.
Difficult measurement.

Perform the work efficiently (work practices)
Encourage appropriate use of judgement (work practices)
Control variances (problems) at their source (work practices)
Monitor the quality of both inputs and outputs (work practices)
Boundaries between business process steps should facilitate control (work practices)
Match the work practices with the participants (work practices and participants)
Serve the participants (participants)
Align participant incentives with system goals (participants)
Provide information where it will affect action (technology and work practices)
Protect information from inappropriate use (information)
Use appropriate technology (technology and work practices)
Minimize effort consumed by technology (technology)
Take full advantage of infrastructure (infrastructure)
Minimize unnecessary conflict with the external environment (environment)
Support the firm's strategy (strategy)
Minimize unnecessary risks (system as a whole)
Maintain balance between work system elements (system as a whole)
Maintain the ability to adapt, change and grow (system as a whole)
This phrase describes how a flagship software pulls you into its surrounding platform, dev tools, add-ons, marketplace, identity, analytics, and contracts, making it easier to stay inside the ecosystem than outside it.
