RATIONALE
The system analysis and design is backbone of Application software development. After studying the subject the
students will be able to develop and design the system according to given requirements. It involves various steps in
analysis and design of the system. It includes the knowledge of preparing a project systematically. It is important to
know about various aspects of system analysis and design so that the students will be able to understand the
responsibilities while designing and implementing the project.

DETAILED CONTENTS:
1. Introduction: Concept of system. Types of systems, Open and Closed, Static and Dynamic with examples (04 hrs)

2. Overview of System Analysis and Design : Systems Development life cycle, brief Introduction to feasibility,
design implementation and testing and maintenance (08 hrs)

3. Preliminary Investigations: Project selection, scope definition and preliminary investigation (08 hrs)

4. Feasibility Study: Technical and economic and operational feasibility, cost and benefit analysis (08 hrs)

5. Requirement Specifications and Analysis : Fact finding techniques, data flow diagrams, data dictionaries, decision

6. Detailed Design : Module specification, file design, data base design (05 hrs)

7. Testing and Quality Assurance: Maintenance, unit and integration testing techniques, design objectives, quality
factors such as reliability etc. (07 hrs)

INSTRUCTIONAL STRATEGY:
The system analysis and design is a theoretical subject, so after completing the syllabus of system analysis and design the
teacher will ask group of students to select a small project. The students will apply system analysis and design in
preparation of the project.
