Course Objectives: | After taking this course, the student will have the ability of analyzing and designing a software development process such as defining scope, describing problems, gathering system requirements, constructing data, object and process models and identifying alternative solutions to apply feasibility analysis for the decision-making purposes. In this course, you will engage in various methodologies, processes, techniques, and tools used to handle the phases of the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC). Teaching Methods and Techniques Used in the Course: Lecture, reading, implementation, individual study, problem solving |
The students who have succeeded in this course; At the end of the course, the students will be able to: 1. Describe systems analysis and design concepts for information systems; 2. Describe the essential phases of systems development; 3. Describe project management tools and a number of systems analysis approaches for solving information system problems; 4. Define scope of information system problems; 5. Identify the problems, opportunities and directives that trigger the project; 6. Define functional and nonfunctional system requirements, apply fact-finding technique; 7. Define actors and use cases, construct context and use case model diagrams; 8. Construct data models and UML diagrams; 9. Define the basic concepts and constructs of a process model and construct context, data flow, event and system diagrams; 10. Identify alternative system solutions, define six types of feasibility, prepare cost-benefit analyses and system proposal reports. |
The course content is composed of the basic concepts of systems analysis and design, the components of information systems, methods for developing information systems, project management, systems analysis approaches, scope definition phase, problem analysis phase , requirements analysis phase, use-cases, data modeling and analysis, process modeling, feasibility analysis and the system proposal. |
