  • Abstract
    Dynamic modeling is an approach for supporting the development of information systems that generate new impetus in the research into computer-aided systems engineering. In the work presented, a brief presentation is given of what dynamic modeling is, and how it focuses on conceptual modeling. A case-experiment at the Dutch railroad company is presented, in which a critical evaluation, both qualitative and quantitative, has been made of the hypothesis that dynamic modeling increases the joint understanding of organizational information systems
