Introduction, general SDLC
(T/F) Using a logical view such as a three-tier-architecture to understand a system is a form of
abstraction because it ignores how the system is actually/physically structured. - ANS-True - A
logical view of a system considers the system in a particular way despite its physical reality.
(T/F) Viewing a system using a suitable logical model because the physical reality of the system
is too complex is an example of abstraction. - ANS-True - Abstraction attempts to hide
unnecessary and complicating details by only consideration what is necessary. A logical model
can be used to achieve this.
(T/F) In this course, an information system's architecture is presented as a logical concept to
"think of the system in three separate layers/tiers/parts regardless of the actual physical
structure of the system". This is a form of abstraction as it helps reduce complexity when
attempting to understand an information system. - ANS-True - Review the meaning and purpose
of "logical tiers".
