MDA Journal: Software Industrialization and the New IT
This month we luanch a new feature, Dave Frankel's MDA JOURNAL — comments and articles by Dave and other MDA gurus. In this month's article, Dave reflects on Nicholas Carr's recent HBR article on IT's strategic value. He suggests that MDA illustrates Carr's thesis. He also suggests that MDA will lead to a new era in which IT converges with business process management which will invalidate Carr's thesis.
