Slide 1
INTRODUCTION
Chapter 1

Slide 2
Key Ideas
The primarily goal is to create
value for the organization.
Many failed systems were

tried to build wonderful systems
without understanding the
organization.

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.
Slide 4
THE SYSTEMS
DEVELOPMENT LIFE
CYCLE

Slide 5
Major Attributes of the
Lifecycle
The project
Moves systematically through phases
where each phase has a standard set
of outputs
Produces project deliverables
Uses deliverables in implementation
Results in actual information system
Uses gradual refinement

Slide 6
Project Phases
Planning
Why build the system?
Analysis
Who, what, when, where will the system be?
Design
How will the system work?
Implementation
System delivery

Methodologies

Slide 14
What Is a Methodology?

A formalized approach or series


of steps
Writing code without a well-
thought-out system request
may work for small programs,
but rarely works for large ones.

Slide 15
Structured Design
Projects move methodically
from one to the next step
Generally, a step is finished
before the next one begins

Slide 16
Waterfall Development
Method

Slide 17
Pros and Cons of the
Waterfall Method

Pros Cons

Identifies systems Design must be


requirements long specified on paper
before programming before programming
begins begins

Long time between


system proposal and
delivery of new
system
