=== Wicked problems in software development === In 1990, DeGrace and Stahl introduced the concept of wicked problems to [[software development]].{{sfn|DeGrace|Stahl|1990}} In the last decade{{when|date=December 2022}}, other [[computer scientist]]s{{sfn|Conklin|2003b}}{{sfn|Sølvberg|Kung|1993}} have pointed out that software development shares many properties with other [[design]] practices (particularly that people-, [[business process|process]]-, and [[technology]]-problems have to be considered equally), and have incorporated Rittel's concepts into their [[software design]] methodologies. The design and integration of complex software-defined services that use the Web ([[web services]]) can be construed as an evolution from previous models of software design, and therefore becomes a wicked problem also.
