Systems Analysis & Design

This course introduces the fundamentals of object-oriented analysis and design, including experience with a CASE tool. Topics include requirements determination, feasibility analysis, modeling with Unified Modeling Language (UML) and data dictionary construction, data modeling and normalization, user interface requirements specification, and information security procedures. Development of problem and design specifications for an information systems project is required. Develops team skills, written and oral communication skills. The project we were designated for this course was the develop a mentorship system for the CIS department. The goal was the reduce attrition in the CIS department by making a place where students could get help with assignments and ask questions.

Inception Phase Spec
The Inception Phase covers the first 3 iterations of the system design. In the link you will see the work my group did in designing the first set of deliverable for the project. My specific contributions were: the Systems Request, Risk Analysis, and Use Cases 1-5.

Elaboration Spec
The above will link to a Google Drive folder with my contributions. The Elaboration spec was the final presentation for this course and combined all the work we had done to present a finalized design. Here you can find revised Use Cases, Composite Class Diagram, Sequence and Class Diagrams, and the Design procedures for Non-Functional requirements. Other parts of this spec included wire-frame prototypes and screen layouts.
