    • Welcome Message to my Students





      Dear Students, Assalamulaikum and greetings to all of you. I'm Dr. Md Monzur Morshed, Professor in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at the Daffodil International University. 
      I have received a Bachelor and Master's of Science in Computer Science and Engineering (CSE)  from Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology (BUET). I have received second Master’s  from Global Information and Telecommunication Institute (GITI), Waseda University, japan. I completed my PhD studies from Staffordshire University, UK. 
      In this semester I will take the course CSE325: System Analysis and Design, deal with planning the development of information systems through understanding and specifying in detail what a system should do and how the components of the system should be implemented and work together.  We will also learn how System analysts solve business problems by analyzing the requirements of information systems and designing such systems by applying analysis and design techniques.
      I'm delighted that you are interested in taking our specialization. We have done our part to make this a rewarding educational experience. Now it's your turn, good luck.

    • Course Rationale:

      The main goal of this course is to provide students with a solid background in information systems analysis and design techniques through a combination of theory and practice. It introduces the vital logical and design considerations addressed during system and application software development.

    • Course Objectives:

      Upon completion of the course, students are expected to be able to:

      1.  Define various systems analysis and design concepts and terminologies
      2. Describe the stages of the system development life cycle model.
      3. Describe different methodologies and state-of-the-art developments in System Analysis and Design techniques and methods.

  • Assignment-1: Submission Instruction and Task


    Assignment-1: Submission Instruction and Task

    Scenario-1: 

    A Real Estate, Inc. (AREI), sells houses. People who want to sell their houses sign a contract with AREI and provide information on their house. This information is kept in a database by AREI, and a subset of this information is sent to the citywide multiple listing service used by all real estate agents. AREI works with two types of potential buyers. Some buyers have an interest in one specific house. In this case, AREI prints information from its database, which the real estate agent uses to help show the house to the buyer (a process beyond the scope of the system to be modeled). Other buyers seek AREI’s advice in finding a house that meets their needs. In this case, the buyer completes a buyer information form that is entered into a buyer database, and AREI real estate agents use its information to search AREI’s database and the multiple listing service for houses that meet their needs. The results of these searches are printed and used to help the real estate agent show houses to the buyer.

    Scenario-2: 

    Clyde Clerk is reviewing his firm’s expense reimbursement policies with the new salesperson, Trav Farr. “Our reimbursement policies depend on the situation. You see, first, we determine if it is a local trip. If it is, we only pay mileage of 18.5 cents a mile. If the trip was a one-day trip, we pay mileage and then check the times of departure and return. To be reimbursed for breakfast, you must leave by 7:00 A.M., lunch by 11:00 A.M., and have dinner by 5:00 P.M. To receive reimbursement for breakfast, you must return later than 10:00 A.M., lunch later than 2:00 P.M., and have dinner by 7:00 P.M. On a trip lasting more than one day, we allow a hotel, taxi, and airfare, as well as meal allowances. The same times apply for meal expenses.”

    Task:
    1. Draw the Context Diagram or DFD0 and DFD1 diagram for Scenario-1.
    2. Decision Tree, Decision Table, and Structured Language for Scenario-2. 

    Instruction:

    1. This is an individual assignment. You have to submit it online on (02-03-2021, 11:59 pm).
