INF60010: Proposed System Analysis and Modelling - IT Assessment

INF60010 IT Assessment Task

• List all system requirements you identified: List all functional and non-functional requirements for the proposed system. Provide a brief explanation for each of the requirements, particularly those which are new in the proposed system. You should explain why you added the new requirements and how they help to solve the problems identified.
User Stories and acceptance criteria
• A brief explanation of each stakeholder’s potential interests in the new system
• Identify different types of users and write at least two sample user stories based on each of the key stakeholders’ requirements. You should also list the key acceptance criteria.
Use case descriptions
You are required to
• Provide a brief use case description for each of key functions.
• Select 3 key uses cases to create intermediate level use case descriptions.
• Select at least 1 of the 3-intermediate level use case descriptions to develop a full (formal level) use case description.
Recommendations
• Suggest and compare at least three (3) different types of solutions (e.g. develop from scratch, COTS, Cloud based etc.) and the advantages and disadvantages of each type for the business case. Discuss whether internal or external development would be more suitable for the proposed solution.
• Make your recommendation as to the most appropriate solution for the case with your justification as to why it is the best solution.
• Discuss what steps the case business needs to take if they follow your recommended solution and wish it to be successfully implemented and adopted.
• Confirm project feasibility by briefly discussing the economic, organisational, technical, and other factors along with the required resources and time schedule. You are not required to provide actual numbers e.g. costings or specific dates.
• Briefly discuss the most suitable methodology (e.g., Agile or Waterfall) which you consider the business can adopt for their new system’s analysis, design and implementation process.
• Justification of the chosen modelling approach – compare and contrast the structured analysis and design techniques and models with other modelling techniques (e.g., the object-oriented models and techniques), and clearly identify the strengths and weaknesses of each set. Your justification should be supported by appropriate references and linked to the case.
