Abstract

The principal direction of innovations in software engineering is the search for useful ways of theorizing in the design process and its results. In searching, the nature of design and specificity of software essences should take into account. The paper describes a way of theorizing that focuses on features of organizational and behavioral activity of designing and Grounded theories used in such conditions. The main feature of a suggested theorization is building a project theory on the base of facts of interacting the designers with the accessible experience when they use the design thinking approach for evolving the project and its theory in parallel. Such way leads to new positives in architectural and cause-and-effects forms of understanding.
