What is the System Development Life Cycle?
  • What is an information system (IS)?
  • Set of hardware, software, data, people, and
    procedures that work together to produce
    information

p.14.2
4
What is the System Development Life Cycle?
  • What is the system development life cycle (SDLC)?

5
What is the System Development Life Cycle?
  • What are guidelines for system development?
  • Divide activities or tasks into phases
  • Involve users
  • Develop standards
  • Sets of rules and procedures company expects
    employees to accept and follow

13
What Initiates the System Development Life Cycle?
  • What are some reasons to create or modify an
    information system?

14
What Initiates the System Development Life Cycle?
  • What is a request for system services?
  • Users write formal request for new or modified
    information system
  • Also called project request

p.14.10 Fig. 14-7b
15
Planning Phase
  • What is the planning phase?
  • Begins when steering committee receives project
    request
  • Function of committee

  • Allocate resources
  • Form projectdevelopment team

p.14.12
16
Analysis Phase
  • What is the analysis phase?
  • Consists of two major tasks

p.14.13
17
Analysis Phase
  • What is structured analysis and design?
  • Technique that attempts to address problem by
    using graphics and other tools
  • Used to document findings in way everyone can
    understand

p.14.15
18
Analysis Phase
  • What is an entity-relationship diagram (ERD)?
  • Tool that graphically showsconnections
    between entities insystem

22
Analysis Phase
  • What is a decision table?
  • Lists variety of conditions and actions that
    correspond to each condition

p.14.18 Fig. 14-13
23
Analysis Phase
  • What is a decision tree?
  • Diagram that shows conditions and actions
    graphically

p.14.18 Fig. 14-14
24
Analysis Phase
  • What is a data dictionary?
  • Stores name, description, and other details about
    each data item

p.14.19 Fig. 14-15
25
