Phases of system development?

Person responsible for designing and developing an information system

Process of planning, scheduling, and then controlling the activities during system development

A measure of how suitable the development of a system will be to the organization

Measures how well the proposed information system will work

Measures how well the proposed information system will work

Measures whether the established deadlines for the project are reasonable

Measures whether the organization has or can obtain the computing resources, software services, and qualified people needed to do everything

aka cost/benefit feasibility measures whether the lifetime benefits of the proposed system will be greater than its lifetime costs

The collection and summarization of data, information, and deliverables

Maintaining documentation should be an ongoing part of system development

A working model of the proposed system's essential functionality

The user stops using the old system and begins using the new system on a certain date

Consists of running the old system alongside the new system for a specified time, results from both are compared.

Each location converts at a separate time

Only one location in the organization uses the new system so that it can be tested

Test that verifies that all programs in an application work together properly

Test that verifies that an application works with other applications

A test that is performed by end users and checks the new system to ensure that it works with actual data

A set of words, abbreviations, and symbols that enables a software developer to communicate instructions to a computer or mobile device

A programming language that is machine dependent. (runs on one particular computer/device) (a single machine instruction)

Each instruction equals multiple machine instructions

The programmer writes instructions that tell the computer what to accomplish and how to do it

A separate program that converts the entire source program into machine language before executing it
