Information Systems Development and Data Modeling
Author: Rudy Hirschheim
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 131658240X
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 305
Book Description
Information systems development is not merely a technical intervention but involves social and ethical dilemmas that affect the human, social and organizational domains. To demonstrate this point, the authors conduct a thorough and substantive description and analysis of the conceptual and philosophical underpinnings of systems development. In particular they analyse a number of systems development methodologies including structured methods, prototyping, ETHICS and Soft Systems Methodology to reveal the underlying conceptual and philosophical foundations. The book provides an in-depth analysis of data modelling theory and its links with theories of language and cognition. It offers a framework to describe and analyse different systems development approaches and to explain their strengths and weaknesses. The book is aimed at graduate students taking courses in information systems and data modelling, but will also appeal to information systems managers and professionals for whom the summary of methodologies will be useful.

Learning with Information Systems
Author: Simon Bell
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1134845219
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 277
Book Description
In Learning with Information Systems the author takes the developing world as the context and through a series of case studies develops a commonly used systems analysis methodology. He demonstrates how this methodology can evolve and adapt as new ideas become prominent. Issues of sustainability of information systems, participation in systems design and user ownership of systems are all examined. This book does not attempt to be prescriptive for all contexts nor does it focus on any particular technology. It addresses the essential questions and promises practical approaches which will help in the avoidance of the worst forms of disaster associated with the planning of information systems for developing countries.

Developing Web Information Systems
Author: Richard Vidgen
Publisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 0080504183
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 290
Book Description
Developing Web Information Systems brings together traditional system development methods that have been taught for many years on information systems and computer science courses with web/e-commerce development. It is the first book to bring together IS development and the web applications in a thorough and systematic way. There is a running case study that illustrates web IS development from start to finish. The case is easy to understand (a theatre) and results in a working web application. Most, if not all, analysis and design texts fall short of making that step into software. The book draws heavily on practical experiences of web-based IS development resulting from commercial system development, so as well as appealing to students and academics, it will also interest practitioners. The coverage of data management and e-business strategy gives the book the broader scope essential for understanding IS development properly in an Internet context. - First book to bring together IS development and web applications thoroughly and systematically - Covers full development process from strategy, through analysis and design, to working software - Interactive case study which can be accessed on author's website

Information-systems Development

Publisher: Financial Times Prentice Hall (a Pearson Education Company)
ISBN:
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 280
Book Description
The concern of this book is how an organization's information resource may be identified, gathered, distributed, protected and controlled; in short, how information may be managed. Such information literacy requires a coherent set of concepts through which to understand information systems and a flexible methodology through which those concepts may be applied to any factual situation. It is the contention of this book that both of these may be provided by soft systems thinking.
