Managing the Development and Purchase of IS Part 4 32
Systems Development Methodology? p The process companies go through to develop and maintain an information system p Framework for successful IS development p A System Development Methodology is used n n p For building a new system Or for modifying an existing system Examples of SDM: n System Development Life Cycle ■ Prototyping n Joint Application Development ■ Rapid Application Development 33
Questions p Which of the following is true about SDM? 1) They provide guidelines for developing IS and maintaining them which includes upgrading and improving them. 2) SDM are needed when a brand new IS has to be developed, but you don’t need to use a SDM when it comes to modifying an existing IS. 3) When a company is engaged in developing an IS, the process involves the company’s employees who would be the future users of the IS, and IS professionals like system analysts and programmers. But it doesn’t involve the company’s management 4) All of the above 34
Traditional Systems Development Planning Life Cycle (SDLC) Analysis p Seven phases 1) 2) 3) 4) Planning Systems Analysis Systems Design Development Design 5) Testing 6) Implementation 7) Maintenance Development Testing Implementation p Typically one phase needs to be completed before beginning the next p Problem in later phase may require return to previous phase Maintenance 35
Question p In SDLC, the 7 phases are typically followed in a sequential order, which means we don’t return to a previous phase in any circumstances q True q False 36
Feasibility Analyses Planning p Feasibility analyses n Technical Analysis p n Can the organization afford the system? Will it provide an adequate Benefit? Operational Analysis (i. e. assessing the human element of the proposed system) p p Resistance to change Organizational politics System development schedule n n p Do the technologies exist to develop the system? Economic Analysis p p System Development Schedule Is the proposed development time line realistic? Is the programming team available during Programming step? Planning performed by Project Manager using n n n Search and investigation (e. g. for technical analysis step) Total Cost of Ownership analysis 37 Project Management software
Systems Analysis Analyze current system Define new system requirement p Systems analyst works with company to understand the problem fully and to detail the requirements of the proposed system p Step 1: Analyze current system n Objectives: p p n Understand what things are done and how (business processes) Identify any problems associated w/ current business processes Techniques: p p p Observe employees at work Talk to employees (potential users) Conducting interviews 38
Systems Analysis p Analyze current system Define new system requirements Step 2: Define new system’s requirements n Main Objective: p n To be defined: p p n Specify What need to be done (not how to do it) Input requirements (nature of data, source, etc. ) Processing requirements Output requirements (Types of reports, content, etc. ) Storage requirements Tools and techniques p Data flow diagrams (DFD) § Start with high level process § Add more levels with increased levels of detail p Computer-Aided Software Engineering (CASE) tools § Software that eases the systems development process 39
Data Flow Diagrams (DFD) Process . Symbolized by a rectangle or a curved rectangle. . Action performed by people of organizational units in order to transform input into output OR Action performed by people in the organizational units to help the units achieve their objectives Data flow . Symbolized by an arrow. . Shows data being passed from or to a process External Entity Symbolized by a square, an external entity is something (person, group, department, etc. ) outside the system that interacts with the system by providing input or receiving information. Data storage Used to store data in the system. Represents a file, a database, etc. 40
DFD Exercise p You should be able to answer Questions 1, 2, and 3 of the Lincoln Pizza’s ordering system DFD exercise. Hardcopies were given in class. You can also get a copy in the Notes’ section or in the Review section of the course web site. 41
Systems Design p Using the requirements from Systems Analysis phase to design the new or modified system. n Logical systems design p p p n Specifies all of the actual components (hardware, network, etc) used to implement the logical design The design must be frozen at end of this phase to prevent the to system grow indefinitely in terms of its scope and features p p p Uses System flowcharts to show relationships between modules Physical systems design p n Details the system’s functionality (what it should do? ) Uses Structure charts to create top-down representation of system’s modules Scope creep Feature creep Performed by system designer or (system analyst in 42 some case)
Development p p p Programming process is usually the most difficult and time consuming in the Development process. Development performed by programmers, database developers, and network engineers Programmers use Program Development Cycle 1) 2) 3) 4) 5) Review the input, processing, output, and storage requirements Develop the logic of the programs (using Flowcharts and Pseudo code) Write the programs using code generators & programming languages Test and debug the programs Complete the programs documentation 43
Development tools Program Flowchart: Graphical illustration of the problem-solving logic within a program Pseudocode: English-language statements that describe the processing steps of a program in paragraph form. Code generators: Software that generate programs that programmers could modify. Programming languages: -Java -C++ -Visual Basic -Etc. 44
Testing p Programmers test modules p p p Development team do unit testing p p Do they return proper outputs? Do they handle incorrect data appropriately? i. e. testing how modules work together System testing (software along with database and network component) n n Verification: Testing system in simulated environment with simulated data Validation: Testing system in real working environment with real data 45
Implementation p Implementation strategies n n Parallel conversion: Old and new systems used in parallel for a while. n Pilot testing: New system installed at only one location or one department n p Direct cutover: Quick change to new system Staged conversion: Only one part of the system installed, then another part is installed. User training 46
Maintenance counts for as much as 80% of the total cost of an information system p Tasks p n n Correct errors found during implementation System enhancements Incremental upgrades p Addition of major new features p 47
