  • Abstract
    The KJ method, a technique for obtaining a panoramic view of entire index card arrangements on a computer display, is described. The KJ editor simulates the activity of arranging index cards on a desk. Such activity is essential for carrying out the so-called KJ method, which is used in Japanese business. The editor is used for requirements analysis. It is found that the editor can be used for recording the analytical thinking process and that the resultant chart becomes a very good medium communication between the design and the sponsor/user
