BSAT 303 Chapter 9 Developing
Software to Streamline Operations
conversion - ANSWERSthe process of transferring information from a legacy system to a new
system
Off-the-shelf application software - ANSWERSsupports general business processes and does not
require any specific software customization to meet the organization's needs
Insourcing & outsourcing kind of like a - ANSWERSMake (codes it yourself) or Buy (get it off the
shelf) decision
Systems Development Life Cycle (SDLC) - ANSWERSThe overall process for developing
information systems from planning and analysis through implementation and maintenance
- powerpoint: a structured step-by-step approach for developing information systems
- foundation for all systems development methods, and hundred of different activities are
associated with each phase
- 7 distinct phases
Waterfall methodology - ANSWERSan approach in which each phase of the SDLC is followed by
another, from planning through implementation
- SDLC
, Video from class - ANSWERS- house and #D printers
- Using AI's (artificial intelligence) for Art - to create new art (own art)
1. it's a bad thing for artist - most likely
2. cost will probably be cheaper from the computer
1. Planning phase - ANSWERSestablished a high-level plan of the intended project goals
- power point: create a solid plan for developing your information system
- first part and most critical phase of any system development effort
- must carefully plan the activities to be successful
Baseline Flow chart - ANSWERSshows what the current process is
- this it the first thing you should always do
Three primary planning activities - ANSWERS1, define the system to be developed
2. set the project scope (what we are going to do and not do things that are not included in the
scope)
3. develop the project plan including tasks, resources, and timeframes
scope crep - ANSWERSworking on a project and adding more and more and more to where it
comes to big and you won't be able to do the project anymore
