Systems Analysis and Design

VIS A VIS USER REQUIREMENT
System Analysis is the term used to describe the process of collecting and analyzing
facts in respect of an existing operation of a situation so that an effective computerized system
may be designed and implemented if proved feasible.
System Analysis can be viewed as the most recent and perhaps the most comprehensive
techniques for solving computer problems.
System Analysis also embraces system design, which is an activity concerned with the
design of a computerized application based on facts disclosed during the analysis stage.
System analysis basically is an approach towards viewing process, activities and complex
problems. Thus specifically:

It offers a method for greater understanding of the complex structures.

It is a tool for trade off between functional requirement of a subsystem and its
immediately related sub-system.

It helps in understanding and comparing functional impacts of sub-systems to the

total systems.

It helps in discovering procedures and methodology for designing systems where

sub-systems may have apparently conflicting objectives.

Finally, it helps in placing each sub-system in the proper prospective and context
so that the system as a whole may achieve its objectives with minimum available
resources. It thus creates synchronization between the system and objectives.
