Business Information Systems

Select an information system from your place of employment Explain and analyze the structure and operation database(s) and/or database management system(s) of the selected information system Describe and assess the tools and techniques of business information system development used for this system. This will take some research on your part and some creativity. Use the Case Analyses headings listed below, not a paper narrative Step 1: System Definition Define the system, its role in the organization Step 2: Components Analysis Analyze and document the systems components including databases and application components. You may need to make some inferences to fill in gaps. Clearly label what is inference and what is factual. Do not be afraid to assume, but clearly state the assumptions you are making. You should make assumptions on the basis of your knowledge learned from the chapters, and they should be consistent with the facts about the system, even though your facts may be somewhat limited. Step 3: Tools and Techniques Analysis Assess the tools and techniques used for the development of this particular system. List as many ideas as you can and provide analysis of the tools and techniques’ use and application. Step 4: Draw Conclusions, Make Recommendations
