Introduction
System Development Life Cycle SDLC is an approach that works systematically
to develop a quality software which meets each and every requirement of a
business or individual organization. System analysis is an integral part of SDLC,
which focuses on data collection, problem identification, evaluating business
processes and attempt to develop a feasible solution to importer the
functionalities of the system. At the end of the system analysis phase is a logical
system that provides picture of the enhanced system than the existing one. The
system design phase utilizes the operational data and requirement gathered
during system analysis to develop logical model of the proposed system. This
model includes diagrams which represents the relationships among the system
objects and processes and the logical flow of data. In this report we would utilize
entity relationship diagram ERD to show the scope of the system that would be
developed based on the case study below.
Case study
National University Information Management System (NUIMS)
National University has seen significant growth since its foundation in the year
1995 from 200 students till date to 50000 students and more than 600 members
in staff. The existing system used by the University has many flaws and is
inefficient in terms of managing the rapid growth of students and also
incompatible with the latest technologies (for example the system cannot be
accessed from any other area than the university head office). Thus the
management requires a whole new information system capable of handling the
management and other task efficiently for the admin as well as staff members.
The main aim of the system would be to simplify management of student's
information. The system would be used by not only the admins and staff but also
by the students and tutors equally. The system should be able to track all the
details of the student including their personal details, academic performance,
course and subject details as well as student and teachers schedule and
attendance. The system uses authentication to let the authorized user access
the system according to their privileges and level.
