multiple perspective software development
     
         A decentralised approach to software development
        which, instead of adopting a monolithic representation and
        centralised control, models development in terms of
        collaboration between autonomous partial systems.
     
        Software development usually involves people with different
        goals, expertise, and backgrounds, and the use of a wide range
        of formalisms, tools, and environments.  As information is
        exchanged between participants, dependencies may be
        established between information created by them.  Multiple
        perspective software development may be mapped into the
        transaction model which can be used to prevent uncoordinated
        access to interdependent information causing inconsistency.
