  1. (CHAPTER 1) INTRODUCTION TO SYSTEMS ANALYSIS AND DESIGN • Information Systems • Business Information Systems • Structured Analysis • Object-oriented methodology • Development tools and techniques • Systems development life cycle • Role of the IT department

  2. Information technology (IT) is a combination of hardware, software, and telecommunications systems that support business operations, improve productivity, and help managers make decisions. INFORMATION SYSTEM

  3. Information System Components A system is a set of related components that produces specific results. An information system has five key components: hardware, software, data, processes, and people. Processes

  4. Hardware Hardware refers to the physical layer of the information system. Software Software consists of system software and application software. Data An information system transforms data into useful information. Processes Describe the tasks that users, managers, and IT staff members perform. People Users, sometimes called end users, include employees, customers, vendors, and others who interact with an information system.

  5. Business Process Modelling A business model graphically represents business functions that consist of business processes, such as sales, accounting, and purchasing, which perform specific tasks.

  6. BUSINESS INFORMATION SYSTEM • Characteristics of information systems • Does this system interact with other systems? • 2. What are the system’s boundaries? • 3. Will the system handle specialized business needs? • What size are the company, and what growth is forecast?

  7. Types Of Business Information System ·Enterprise Computing Systems Enterprise computing refers to information systems that support company wide data management requirements. ·Transaction Processing Systems Transaction processing (TP) systems and online transaction processing (OLTP) systems are called operational systems because they process data generated by day-to-day business operations. ·Business Support Systems Business support systems (BSS) provide job-related information support to users at all levels of a company.

  8. ·Knowledge Management Systems Knowledge management systems are sometimes called expert systems because they simulate human reasoning by combining a knowledge base and inference rules that determine how the knowledge is applied. ·User Productivity Systems User productivity systems provide employees at all organizational levels with a wide array of tools that can improve quality and job performance. ·Information Systems Integration Systems that combine enterprise computing, transaction processing, business support, knowledge management, and user productivity features.

  9. ORGANISATIONAL STRUCTURE Top Management Top managers develop long-range plans that define the company’s overall mission and goals. Focuses on issues that affect the company’s future survival and growth, including long-term IT plans. Use information systems to set the company’s course and direction.

  10. Middle Management Middle managers focus their goals on a shorter time frame. Develop plans to achieve business objectives, delegate authority and responsibility to team leaders or supervisors and provide direction, necessary resources, and feedback on performance as tasks are completed. Lower Management Oversee operational employees and carry out day-to-day operational plans. Coordinate operational tasks, make necessary decisions, and ensure that the right tools, materials, and training are available. Operational Employees Primarily use TP systems to enter and receive data.

  11. OVERVIEW OF SYSTEMS DEVELOPMENT • TOOLS AND TECHNIQUES • Modelling • Modelling produces a graphical representation of a concept or process that systems developers can analyse, test, and modify. • Business model • Data model  • Object model  • Process model

  12. Prototyping Prototyping involves the creation of an early working version of the information system or its components. Computer-Aided Systems Engineering Computer-aided systems engineering (CASE) is a technique that uses powerful programs, called CASE tools, to help systems analysts develop and maintain information systems. Joint Application Development and Rapid Application Development Both approaches use teams composed of users, managers, and IT staff to complete projects. JAD involves team-based fact- finding techniques, while RAD is more like a condensed version of the entire development process.

  13. SYSTEMS DEVELOPMENT METHODOLOGIES • Structured Analysis • Structured analysis uses a series of phases, called the systems development life cycle (SDLC) to plan, analyse, design, implement, and support an information system. • Object-Oriented Analysis • Object-oriented (0-0) analysis combines data and the processes that act on the data into things called objects. • Other Development Strategies • Example, Microsoft has developed an approach called Microsoft Solutions Framework (MSF) that documents the experience of its own IT teams.

  14. SYSTEMS DEVELOPMENT LIFE CYCLE Structured analysis uses a technique called the systems development life cycle (SDLC) to plan and manage the systems development process. The SDLC Model includes the following steps: 1. Systems planning 2. Systems analysis 3. Systems design 4. Systems implementation 5. Systems operation and support

  15. INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY DEPARTMENT The information technology (IT) department develops and maintains a company’s information systems. ROLE OF SYSTEMS ANALYST A systems analyst investigates, analyses, designs, develops, installs, evaluates, and maintains a company's information systems.
