In computing , a situational application is good enough software created for a narrow group of users with a unique set of needs. The application typically but not always has a short life span, and is often created within the group where it is used, sometimes by the users themselves. As the requirements of a small team using the application change, the situational application often also continues to evolve to accommodate these changes. Although Situational Applications are specifically designed to embrace change, significant changes in requirements may lead to an abandonment of the situational application altogether in some cases it is just easier to develop a new one than to evolve the one in use. Characteristics Situational Applications are developed fast, easy to use, uncomplicated, and serve a unique set of requirements. They have a narrow focus on a specific business problem, and they are written in a way where if the business problem changes rapidly, so can the situational application.

Situated ethics , often confused with situationalethics , is a view of applied ethics in which abstract standards from a culture or theory are considered to be far less important than the ongoing processes in which one is personally and physically involved, e.g. climate, ecosystem, etc. It is one of several theories of ethics within the philosophy of action . There are also situated theories of economics , e.g. most green economics , and of knowledge , usually based on some situated ethics. All emphasize the actual physical, geographical, ecological and infrastructural state the actor is in, which determines that actor s actions or range of actions all deny that there is any one perspective cognitive point of view from which to apply moral standard standard s of or by authority . This makes such theories unpopular with authority, and popular with those who advocate political decentralisation . Embodiment Humans pass through Kohlberg Gilligan s stages of moral development . Up to stage 3, these stages are compatible with embodiment . Most philosophy of law emphasizes that the fact that bodies take risk to enforce laws, make laws embodied at least to the degree they are enforced. However, the stages become problematic when Lawrence Kohlberg posits a universal ethic s that is, a disembodied ethic s. All ethical decisions are necessarily situated in a world . Carol Gilligan s view is closer to an embodied view and emphasizes ethical relationship s necessarily between bodies over universal ethical principles that require a God s Eye view . Some ethicists emphasize the role of the ethicist to sort out right versus right in a given context. This is stage 4 but assumes that the ethicist is hesitant to damage relationships or violate principles, e.g. that survival or human rights take precedence over property rights .

The situational theory of publics defines that publics can be identified and classified in the context to which they are aware of the problem and the extent to which they do something about the problem. Brief Explanation of the Theory The situational theory of publics , developed by Professor James E. Grunig in University of Maryland, College Park , defines that publics can be identified and classified in the context to which they are aware of the problem and the extent to which they do something about the problem. This theory explains when people communicate and when communications aimed at people are most likely to be effective. The concepts in the theory parallel those with the Dewey and Blumer s definition of publics. Key Concepts as Variables Problem recognition Independent Variable Problem recognition is the extent to which individuals recognize a problem facing them. People do not stop to think about situations unless they perceive that something needs to be done to improve the situation Grunig & Hunt, 1984, p. 149 .

Coombs created his experimentally based SCCT to give communicators scientific evidence to guide their decisions, essentially stating that the actions an organization takes post crisis depends on the crisis situation.
