What is Information Systems Analysis and Design? A method used by companies to create and maintain systems that perform basic business functions Main goal is to improve employee efficiency by applying software solutions to key business tasks A structured approach must be used in order to ensure success 1.6 Copyright © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall

What is Information Systems Analysis and Design? (continued) Systems Analysts perform analysis and design based upon: Understanding of organization’s objectives, structure and processes Knowledge of how to exploit information technology for advantage Fig 1-1 illustrates the Systems Development Life Cycle, a four-phased approach used throughout this text 1.7 Copyright © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc.

Systems Analysis and Design: Core Concepts Major goal: to improve organizational systems by developing or acquiring application software and training employees in its use Application software, or a system, supports organizational functions or processes 1.5 Copyright © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall

Systems Analysis and Design: Core Concepts (continued) Application software/System: Turns data into information and includes: Hardware and system software Documentation and training materials Job roles associated with the system Controls to prevent theft or fraud The people who use the software to perform their jobs Figure 1.2 illustrates all the components of a system 1.6 Copyright © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc.

System A system is an interrelated set of business procedures used within one business unit working together for a purpose A system has nine characteristics A system exists within an environment A boundary separates a system from its environment 1.8 Copyright © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall

Characteristics of a System Components Interrelated Components Boundary Purpose Environment Interfaces Constraints Input Output 1.9 Copyright © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall

Important System Concepts Decomposition The process of breaking down a system into smaller components Allows the systems analyst to: Break a system into small, manageable and understandable subsystems Focus on one area at a time, without interference from other areas Concentrate on component pertinent to one group of users without confusing users with unnecessary details Build different components at independent times and have the help of different analysts 1.11 Copyright © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall

Important System Concepts (continued) Modularity Direct result of decomposition Process of dividing a system into modules of a relatively uniform size Modules simplify system design Coupling Subsystems that are dependent upon each other are coupled Cohesion Extent to which a subsystem performs a single function 1.12 Copyright © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall

Your Role in Systems Development Study problems and needs of an organization Determine best approach to improving organization through use of: People Methods Information technology Help system users and managers define their requirements for new or enhanced information systems 1.13 Copyright © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall

Developing Information Systems and the Systems Development Life Cycle Systems Development Methodology A standard process followed in an organization to conduct all the steps necessary to analyze design implement and maintain information systems. 1.14 Copyright © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall

Developing Information Systems and the Systems Development Life Cycle (continued) Phases are not necessarily sequential Phases may be completed in parallel Life cycle can be iterative i.e. phases can be repeated until an acceptable system is found Each phase has a specific outcome and deliverable Every company customizes the life-cycle model to its individual needs 1.15 Copyright © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall

Phases of the Systems Development Life Cycle 1. Systems Planning and Selection Two Main Activities Identify the need for new or enhanced system Perform a feasibility study Investigate the system and determine the proposed system’s scope. Please look at the figure on next slide 2. Systems Analysis Study of current procedures and information systems. Perform subphases as follows: Determine what users want from the proposed system Structuring the needs according to interrelationships. Generate and compare alternatives Recommend best alternative

Phases of the Systems Development Life Cycle (continued) 3. System Design Logical Design (blueprint) Concentrates on business aspects of the system i.e. input and output screens, databases etc. High-level abstraction of the system Physical Design This is explained in terms of how data is input into a system, how it is verified/authenticated, how it is processed, and how it is displayed. Three sub-tasks: User Interface Design Data Design Process Design 1.18 Copyright © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall

Phases of the Systems Development Life Cycle (continued) System Implementation and Operation (continued) Implementation Hardware and software installation Programming User Training Documentation Operation Programmers may make change that users ask Revising errors by recoding 1.19 Copyright © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall

Products of the SDLC phases

Alternative Approaches to Development Prototyping Building a scaled-down working version of the system Can be done using CASE tools that make prototyping easier and more creative by supporting the design of screens. Advantages: Users are involved in design Captures requirements in concrete form 1.21 Copyright © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall

1.22 Copyright © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall

Alternative Approaches to Development (continued) Joint Application Design (JAD) Users, Managers and Analysts work together for several days System requirements are reviewed Structured meetings 1.23 Copyright © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall
