Course Description: System Analysis and Design
Course Code: IT 333
Course Credit: 3 Units

COURSE OVERVIEW

System analysis and design deal with planning the development of

information systems through understanding and specifying in detail what a system
should do and how the components of the system should be implemented and
work together. System analysts solve business problems through analyzing the
requirements of information systems and designing such systems by applying
analysis and design techniques. This course deals with the concepts, skills,
methodologies, techniques, tools, and perspectives essential for systems analysts.

COURSE OBJECTIVES

Upon successful completion of this course, you will be able to

✔ gather data to analyze and specify the requirements of a system.

✔ design system components and environments.
✔ build general and detailed models that assist programmers in implementing
a system.
✔ design a database for storing data, a user interface for data input and output,
and controls to protect the system and its data.

Why should you develop both logical and physical DFDs for systems? What
advantage is there for drawing a logical DFD before a physical DFD for a new
information system?
Physical data flow diagrams help you better understand the people and/or computer
systems that are used in the overall system’s processing. Logical data flow diagrams help
you better understand the essence of the system, the data and the processes that
transform them, regardless of actual physical form. Further, the new logical data flow
diagrams can then show any additional functionality necessary in the new system, to
indicate which, if any, obsolete components have been eliminated, and any changes in the
logical flow of data between system components, including different data stores. The data
flow diagrams for the new physical system can then be constructed with the data flow
diagrams for the new logical system as a guide.

ACTIVITY NO. 1
Instruction: Using the previous material posted in Google classroom are your reference,
Give what is asked in the DFD problems below:

1. Choose a transaction that you are likely to encounter, perhaps ordering a cap and
gown for graduation, and develop a high-level DFD, or context diagram.
Decompose this to a level-0 diagram.
