Systems Analysis and Design in a Changing World

About this title: This groundbreaking title presents a balanced focus on concepts and techniques from both traditional systems analysis and the newer object-oriented approach, to provide the most complete, up-to-date coverage of systems analysis and design with a minimum of extraneous information and outdated theory. The emphasis is therefore placed on fundamentals of lasting value rather than on details of only one specific analysis and design method. At the same time, because of the diversity of development environments in the real world, coverage of all major approaches to both analysis and design are included. The importance of system models is emphasized, whether they are traditional models or object-oriented models.
