INTRODUCTION

Chapter 1



Key Ideas

Many failed systems were abandoned because analysts tried to build wonderful systems without understanding the organization.The primarily goal is to create value for the organization.



Key Ideas

The systems analyst is a key person analyzing the business, identifying opportunities for improvement, and designing information systems to implement these ideas.It is important to understand and develop through practice the skills needed to successfully design and implement new information systems.



THE SYSTEMS DEVELOPMENT LIFE CYCLE



Major Attributes of the Lifecycle

The projectMoves systematically through phases where each phase has a standard set of outputsProduces project deliverablesUses deliverables in implementationResults in actual information systemUses gradual refinement



Project Phases

PlanningWhy build the system?

AnalysisWho, what, when, where will the system be?

DesignHow will the system work?

ImplementationSystem delivery

THE EVOLUTION OF SYSTEM DEVELOPMENT



What Is a Methodology?

A formalized approach or series of stepsWriting code without a well-thought-out system request may work for small programs, but rarely works for large ones.



Structured Design

Projects move methodically from one to the next stepGenerally, a step is finished before the next one begins



Waterfall Development Method



Pros and Cons of the Waterfall Method

Pros Cons

Identifies systems requirements long before programming begins

Design must be specified on paper before programming begins

Long time between system proposal and delivery of new system

BASIC CHARACTERISTICS OF OBJECT-ORIENTED SYSTEMS



Key Elements

Classes -- template to define objects

Instances -- specific examples of class members

Objects -- building block of the system

Attributes -- describe data aspects of the object

Methods -- the processes the object can perform

Messages -- instructions sent to or received from other objects



A Class and Its Objects

PATIENT

-Name-Birthdate-Phone Number+Insert ()()+Delete ()()

PATIENT 1: TOP PACKAGE: PATIENT

-Name = Teresa Marks-Birthdate = March 16, 1975-Phone number = 314-997-3456

PATIENT 2: TOP PACKAGE: PATIENT

-Name = Mel Bourne-Birthdate = May 11, 1965-Phone number = 314-997-3219

Instantiated Objects of the Class



The Key to Reusability

Information hiding is the principle that only information required to use the object is available outside the objectEncapsulation is the mechanism that combines data and processes in a single object



Class Hierarchy



Inheritance



Polymorphism



OBJECT-ORIENTED ANALYSIS AND DESIGN USING UML



UML

The full UML provides 9 separate diagramming techniques



PROJECT TEAM ROLES AND SKILLS



Information Systems Roles

Business analystSystem analystInfrastructure analystChange management analystProject manager



Summary -- Part 1

The Systems Development Lifecycle consists of four stages: Planning, Analysis, Design, and Implementation

There are three major development methodologies: the waterfall method, RAD, and the Object-Oriented approach.



Summary -- Part 2

There are six major elements in Object-Oriented design: classes, objects, instances, attributes, methods, and messages.Encapsulation, Inheritance, and Polymorphism are also important object-oriented conceptsThere are five major team roles: business analyst, systems analyst, infrastructure analyst, change management analyst and project manager.
