Abstract

Following an initial review and evaluation of current techniques for modelling delivery information flow in microsystems technology (MST) companies, this article analyses the ‘information channel diagram’ (ICD) approach – as a diagrammatical technique for modelling information flow through an empirical study that compares the ICD with existing information flow models used by MST companies.
