Systems Analysis and Design


Book Description

Systems Analysis and Design: An Object-Oriented Approach with UML, Sixth Edition helps students develop the core skills required to plan, design, analyze, and implement information systems. Offering a practical hands-on approach to the subject, this textbook is designed to keep students focused on doing SAD, rather than simply reading about it. Each chapter describes a specific part of the SAD process, providing clear instructions, a detailed example, and practice exercises. Students are guided through the topics in the same order as professional analysts working on a typical real-world project. Now in its sixth edition, this edition has been carefully updated to reflect current methods and practices in SAD and prepare students for their future roles as systems analysts. Every essential area of systems analysis and design is clearly and thoroughly covered, from project management, to analysis and design modeling, to construction, installation, and operations. The textbook includes access to a range of teaching and learning resources, and a running case study of a fictitious healthcare company that shows students how SAD concepts are applied in real-life scenarios.




Object-Oriented Systems Analysis and Design Using UML


Book Description

This book introduces students to the overall process of systems analysis and design, and specifically shows how O-O techniques can be used. It also addresses transferable skills, such as those used in fact-finding and project management.




Object-oriented Systems Analysis and Design


Book Description

This book approaches system analysis and design with an object-oriented perspective, faithful to UML and others currently in use in many organizations. The SDC is central in the development of an information system; the book shows how each step of the SDC builds on itself. It provides readers with a strong systematic framework, linking one chapter to the next; this approach enables readers to easily learn object-oriented system analysis and design. All terminology and diagrams are UML compliant.A running case (The Pine Valley Furniture Webstore) is used throughout the book as an example. Readers can develop, propose, implement, and maintain a Webstore, learning through doing. The end-of-chapter case, Broadway Entertainment Company Inc., shows readers how a fictional video and record retailer develops an object-oriented application. Coverage includes: foundations for object-oriented systems development; project planning and management; systems analysis; systems design; and systems implementation and operation.An excellent "how-to" guide for systems analysts and designers.




Advanced Object-Oriented Analysis and Design Using UML


Book Description

This 1998 book conveys the essence of object-oriented programming and software building through the Unified Modeling Language.




Introduction to Object-Oriented Analysis and Design with UML CD


Book Description

This text is the first to present an object-oriented methodology from the outset for beginning Systems Analysis and Design students. It is the first book to introduce object-oriented methods without relying on classical methods to introduce key concepts and without requiring students to know Java or C++. The widely used UML notation --unified modeling language-- will be used throughout the book for all diagrams and model renderings. The key benefit to this approach is that it makes the course easier to teach since many students come to this course with limited backgrounds having only taken one introductory MIS course. Also, this approach is appealing because object-oriented methodology is widely used in industry.




Object-Oriented Analysis and Design for Information Systems


Book Description

Object-Oriented Analysis and Design for Information Systems clearly explains real object-oriented programming in practice. Expert author Raul Sidnei Wazlawick explains concepts such as object responsibility, visibility and the real need for delegation in detail. The object-oriented code generated by using these concepts in a systematic way is concise, organized and reusable. The patterns and solutions presented in this book are based in research and industrial applications. You will come away with clarity regarding processes and use cases and a clear understand of how to expand a use case. Wazlawick clearly explains clearly how to build meaningful sequence diagrams. Object-Oriented Analysis and Design for Information Systems illustrates how and why building a class model is not just placing classes into a diagram. You will learn the necessary organizational patterns so that your software architecture will be maintainable. Learn how to build better class models, which are more maintainable and understandable. Write use cases in a more efficient and standardized way, using more effective and less complex diagrams. Build true object-oriented code with division of responsibility and delegation.




Designing Flexible Object-oriented Systems with UML


Book Description

This is billed as the only book that puts all the features of the UML notation system into the context of a fully developed example--an order processing system. Contains the unique insights of an experienced consultant who has coached companies on object-oriented design and programming.
