前言
Introduction to Systems Analysis and Design is intended to support a first course in information systems development for information systems majors and other business majors.
We recommend that students take a computer or information systems literacy course before using this text. Introduction to Systems Analysis and Design does not assume students have taken a programming course, although some knowledge of programming can significantly enhance the learning experience provided by this textbook.
> The Need for This Book
Systems Analysis and D?sign Methods, 7e is the most widely-adopted textbook on the subject. It continues to be the book of choice for those faculty teaching a comprehensive systems analysis and design course with a balanced coverage of systems concepts, tools, and techniques.
Introduction to Systems Analysis and Design will meet the needs of the many faculty and students who have told us over the years that they want a complete, but more concise text with just enough emphasis on systems concepts.
> Pedagogical Use of Color
The book uses color applied to an adaptation of Zachman's Framework for Informa-tion Systems Architecture. The color mappings are displayed in the inside front cover of the textbook.
The information systems building blocks matrix uses these colors to introduce recurring concepts. System models then reinforce those concepts with a consistent use of the same colors.
> Organization
Introduction to Systems Analysis and Design is divided into four parts. The text's organization is flexible enough to allow instructors to omit and resequence chapters according to what they feel is important to their audience. Every effort has been made to decouple chapters from one another as much as possible to assist in resequencing the material--even to the extent of reintroducing selected concepts and terminology.
Part One,"The Context of Systems Development Projects"presents the information systems development scenario and process. Chapters 1 through 3 introduce the student to systems analysts, other project team members (including users and management),information systems building blocks (based on the Zachman framework), a contemporary systems development life cycle, and project management. Part One can be covered relatively quickly. Some readers may prefer to omit project management or delay it until the end of the book.
Part Two,"Systems Analysis Methods," covers the front-end life-cycle activities, tools,and techniques for analyzing business problems, specifying business requirements for an information system, and proposing a business and system solution. Coverage in Chapters 4 through 10 includes requirements gathering, use cases, data modeling with entity-relationship diagrams, process modeling with data flow diagrams, object-oriented analysis, and solution identification and the system proposal.
Part Three,"Systems Design Methods;' covers the middle life-cycle activities, tools,and techniques. Chapters 11 through 17 include coverage of both general and detailed design, with a particular emphasis on application architecture, rapid development and prototyping, external design (inputs, outputs, and interfaces), internal design (e.g.,database and software engineering), and object-oriented design.
Information Systems Framework
Color is used consistently throughout the text's frame-work to introduce recurring concepts.
represents methods
represents data and/or knowledge
represents process
represents communication/interface
