SDLC

Which of the following is the first step in the Systems Development Life Cycle?

• Conceptual Design

• Physical Design

• Systems Analysis

• Operations and Maintenance

What is the main purpose of Systems Analysis?

• To identify the strengths and weaknesses of the current system

• To identify and evaluate appropriate design alternatives

• To translate broad, user-oriented conceptual design requirements into detailed specifications

• To gather the information needed to purchase, develop or modify a system

What is the purpose of the Systems Analysis report?

• To identify the information needs of system users and managers

• To communicate conceptual design requirements to the information systems steering committee

• To prepare for the implementation and conversion phase

• To establish standards and controls for the new system

What is the main purpose of the Implementation and Conversion phase?

• To hire and train employees

• To develop procedures

• To establish standards and controls for the new system

• To convert to the new system and dismantle the old one

Which of the following is NOT a task during the Physical Design phase?

• Translating broad, user-oriented conceptual design requirements into detailed specifications

• Coding and testing computer programs

• Designing input and output documents

• Identifying and evaluating appropriate design alternatives

What is the main purpose of the Operations and Maintenance phase?

• To develop procedures

• To establish standards and controls for the new system

• To periodically review and modify the new system

• To convert to the new system and dismantle the old one
