Course Description

Like building a skyscraper, developing a large-scale software system may require the work of thousands of people over a period of several years. Analysts and designers coordinate technical plans so that individual efforts combine into a complete and effective system. This course surveys structured and object-oriented approaches to defining a system's functional and quality requirements. It also examines how to convert these requirements into the structural and functional design elements of an effective organizational information system.
