Paper presented by Warfield that criticizes shallow, hasty technology, which produces ‘invasive systems’ loaded with potential disaster. Warfield advocates a technology based on ‘deep logic’ which utilizes the tools of “Generic Design Science,” a continuous reevaluation process. Presented at 1989 Simposio Internacao de Comunicao Significao e Conhecimento face as Technologias de Informacao, 13-15 Sept., Lisbon. Later published in a proceedings of the conference.
