== Concise description of theory ==
There are differing opinions about what constitutes design
theories for information technology artifacts. Walls et al.
(1992) specify two major components of IT design theories:
a product component and a development process component.
Each draws upon kernel theories (usually taken from the
natural or social sciences) in specifying prescriptive hypotheses
that enable designers to evaluate whether the product and
its development process satisfy the design theory. Goldkuhl
(2004) specifies a need for multiple grounding of design
theories in external theories, reference theories, value
theories, etc. Markus et al. (2002) take a more practical view
of design theories, using these theories to explain the means–
ends relationship as a practical, prescriptively causal mechanism
to justify design components.
