compares a number of -s for assembling apps.

This later piece frames this in terms of development. It also points to a of 's being used this way.

This earlier piece gets into the [Tacit Interaction]-s challenge of automation. This goes back to a [Mc Kinsey Quarterly] piece - Complex interactions typically require people to deal with ambiguity - there are no rule books to follow - and to exercise high levels of judgment. These men and women (such as managers, salespeople, nurses, lawyers, judges, and mediators) must often draw on deep experience, which economists call "." For the sake of clarity, we will therefore refer to the more complex interactions as tacit and to the more routine ones as transactional. [Transactional Interaction]-s include not just clerical and accounting work, which companies have long been automating or eliminating, but also most of what specialists, auditors, biochemists, and many others do... Technology makes it possible to boost the quality, speed, and scalability of the decisions employees make... systems are more likely than hard-coded systems and connections to be adapted successfully to the highly dynamic work of tacit employees.

This Feb'2006 piece applies this thinking to software such as [IntalIo].
