Aims of the Unit Swinburne
- Examine the core concepts and practical techniques

necessary to ensure accurate and complete
requirements specifications
- Emphasize the need for information systems within the
business and ensuring that systems provide benefit to
the business in meeting defined goals and objectives
while satisfying the requirements of stakeholders.
- Learn to model system requirements
- “structured/traditional" approach, which includes process
and data modelling
- "object-oriented" approach includes use case modelling
with the universal modelling language (UML).

How this unit Delivered? Swinburne
- The unit is taught in blended mode with an online

component.
- "Blended learning" is an approach to learning where
learning activities are a mix of face-to-face and online
learning.

Information System
5 component framework

Information Swinburne
The terms "data" and "information" are sometimes misinterpreted as referring
to the same thing. However, they are not the same.
• Data: Data is the collection of recorded values or raw facts from which
information can be ascertained
• Information: collection of data organized in such a way that they have
value beyond the facts themselves
• Process: set of logically related tasks performed to achieve a defined
outcome
• Turning data into information is a process
• Knowledge: awareness and understanding of a set of information and the
ways it can be made useful to support a task
• The process of defining relationships among data to create useful information
requires knowledge

Information Swinburne
There are three categories of information related to managerial

levels and the decision managers make.
Higher

Swinburne
Information – why its important
If an organisation’s information is not accurate or complete:

• People can make poor decisions, costing thousands, or
even millions, of dollars
• Depending on the type of data you need:
• Some characteristics become more important than
others
• Accuracy and completeness are critical for data used in
accounting for the management of company assets

Autonomous, Dynamic Systems and IOTare the directions
of future systems development and opportunities. How
many possible systems can you see in this picture?

What is systems analysis and systems design?
Swinburne
Systems analysis is the process of examining a business

situation for the purpose of developing a system solution
to a problem or devising improvements to such a
situation.
Ref: https://www.referenceforbusiness.com/management/Str-Ti/Systems-Analysis.html#ixzz5hOSlYXbj
• Systems Analysis
• is concerned with problem solving - creating a system that will
solve an organisational problem.
• whether it's feasible for the system to be developed
• process which analysts go through to determine how a system
should operate
• determining the functions the system should perform

What is systems analysis and systems design? Swinburne
It is a process of planning a new business system or

replacing an existing system by defining its
components or modules to satisfy the specific
requirements. Before planning, you need to
understand the old system thoroughly and determine
how computers can best be used in order to operate
efficiently.
• Systems Design
• determine how the system will operate
• design on the physical components of the system and how they
should operate to effectively meet user needs
.

System Analysis and Design (SAD) mainly

focuses on −
Systems
Processes
Technology

Swinburne
Constraints of a System
A system must have three basic constraints −
1. A system must have some structure and behaviour which is

designed to achieve a predefined objective.
2. Interconnectivity and interdependence must exist among

the system components.
3. The objectives of the organisation have a higher priority

than the objectives of its subsystems.
For example, traffic management system, payroll system,

automatic library system, human resources information
system.
