dc.description.abstract	An analysis of the incomprehensibility of large, complex computer systems is made. The thesis is that there is a strong relationship between system incomprehensibility and the necessity to trust computer systems. A cogent definition of incomprehensibility in computer system is established, with common themes drawn from interdisciplinary literature dealing with computers and society.	en_US
