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.
