ICT310 System Analysis and Design

Task Read the Case Study: Your IT Support Crowd Pty Ltd and answer the following question  Part A – Essay Question 1: Essay Gabrielle is a business focused YITSC partner. Although Gabrielle understands project and event management from a business perspective, she has a limited understanding of IT projects. Gabrielle understands that competently managing the development of this backup Controller project will help ensure that the Controller service will work well as per the system requirement, will meet budget, and be developed and deployed in a timely fashion. However, her research on information system project management has confused her a little. She came across terms such as ‘Systems Development Life Cycle’ and ‘Agile’ and has asked you to explain how these relate to the Controller Project.   The Systems Development Life Cycle (SDLC) defines six (6) core processes. a) Describe each of the:I. core processes (figure 10.5) in relation to the Controller project (15% marks) andII. core process activities (hints: Figures 11.5 and 11.12 as a start) the project would require for each of these processes (15% marks).b) Outline what ‘Agile’ means in relation to Information Systems projects and how it would be applied in the Controller project (15% marks). Roger, Gabrielle and their partners are your target audience for this essay. They are executive business people and some of them have limited understanding of computer terminology. Your essay should be no less than one thousand five hundred (1500) words and it would be best to be no longer than two thousand (2000) words long. Appropriate referencing is required. The textbook Satzinger et. al is a valid resource, however it is expected that at least five (5) other resources will also be used.   Consult Rubric in Appendix A for more details on how this question will be marked. Part B - Modelling and Diagramming Review the YITSC case study and answer the following questions with reference to the information in the case study. Do not extend the scope for any of the following solutions beyond that specifically described in the case study above. You are permitted to make reasonable assumptions where necessary but these should be noted. It is recommended that you review all documentation for this case study before finalising any single solution. Ensure that the required consistency has been included within and between each question solution. Consult Rubric in Appendix A for more details on how these questions will be marked. Question 2: Use Case Modelling 30% marks a) Event Table Review the YITSC case study and prepare an event table for the information system to support the business processes as described. Use at least the following headings for the Event Table:   Event Event Type  Trigger  Source  Activity/Use Case  System Response/ Output  Destination   b) Use Case DiagramReview the YITSC case study and your event table solution from question 3a above to prepare a Use Case diagram for the supporting information system. Solutions must follow the methodology as outlined within the Satzinger et al (2016) textbook. Solutions are expected to align with the components as shown in figures 3-12 and 3-15. Consult Rubric in Appendix A for more details on how this question will be marked.   c) Use Case Description Prepare a fully developed Use Case description for the ‘Create Offsite Backup Task' use case, as documented in the event table solution and the use case diagram solution. Solutions must follow the methodology as outlined within the Satzinger et al (2016) textbook. Solutions are expected to align with the components as shown in figure 5-2. Consult Rubric in Appendix A for more details on how this question will be marked. Question 3: Domain Modelling 25% marks a) Domain Model Class Diagram Review the YITSC case study to prepare a domain model class diagram for the supporting information system.    Solutions must follow the methodology as outlined within the Satzinger et al (2016) textbook. Solutions are expected to show: The class name and attributes list for each class and sub class as required All required associations All attributes as specifically mentioned in the case study must be reflected Other attributes as needed to support the described functionality. It is not necessary to show methods, however you may include them if you wish. Solutions are expected to align with the components as shown in figures 4-16 and 4-21. Consult Rubric in Appendix A for more details on how this question will be marked. b) Design Class DiagramPrepare a Design class diagram for the Task Schedule and Backup Task classes Only. These two classes should be part of the Domain model class diagram solution for the previous question. Each of these design class diagrams are expected to have a complete attributes list and a comprehensive methods list which supports the specified functionality as described in the case study. Solutions must follow the methodology as outlined within the Satzinger et al (2016) textbook. Solutions are expected to align with the components for the ‘Design class diagram Student’ as shown on the right hand of figure 12.4. Consult Rubric in Appendix A for more details on how this question will be marked.
