2 ? What is “systems analysis”? What is “systems architecture”? Problem Solving Technique Decomposition Business Process Modeling What is the problem? What is the solution?

6 Systems Analysis "Systems analysis is a problem solving technique that decomposes a system into its component pieces for the purpose of the studying how well those component parts work and interact to accomplish their purpose" - Wikipedia [ [ "the process of studying a procedure or business in order to identify its goals and purposes and create systems and procedures that will achieve them in an efficient way“ – Merriam-Webster Dictionary

7 Systems Architecture Systems Architecture is a generic discipline to handle objects (existing or to be created) called "systems", in a way that supports reasoning about the structural properties of these objects. Systems Architecture is a response to the conceptual and practical difficulties of the description and the design of complex systems. – Boris Golden Once a systems analyst understands the business problem, they architect a solution

10 ? What is a “swim lane diagram”? How is a process performed? Who does what? When do they do it? What happens before? What happens after?

11 What is a swim lane diagram? A type of process flow diagram that features divisions or "lanes." Each lane is assigned an actor (which may be an individual, department, division, group, machine, entity, and so on), or even a phase or stage in a process, that is responsible for the activity or work described in the lane. 11

12 How to map a swim lane diagram A circle signifies the starting and ending of an event in the process A rectangle represents an activity in the process. A diamond represents a decision that must be made. Arrows indicate the flow of the process. A cylinder represents stored data. 12

13 Swim Lane Diagram Who does what and when?

15 ? Give me a process and let’s make a swim lane diagram… Worksheet “System Analysis : Process Decomposition with Swim Lane Diagrams”

19 ? What is an “entity relationship diagram”? Entity = Noun Relationship = Verb Attribute = Characteristic Data Model

20 What is a entity relationship diagram? An Entity Relationship Diagram (ERD) is a visual representation of different data using conventions that describe how these data are related to each other. 20

23 ? Let’s model the data that is used by the process we modeled earlier… Worksheet “System Analysis : Entity Relationship Diagrams (ERD)”
