Phase 1: System Definition

Define goals and scope of the new info
system:
- Facilitate collaboration
- Aid in decision making, problem solving &
project management
Phase 1: System Definition





Better organized and more specific columns
Columns should only hold one item, so
aimed search can be conducted
Data must be correct
Each number must be assigned to only one
person
This will eliminate ambiguity
Phase 2: Requirements Analysis



Determine and document specific features
and functions of new system
Each item must have a separate column
Search for single items should be as clear &
easy as possible
Phase 3: Component Design


Each component is designed by:
– Developing alternatives
– Evaluating each alternative regarding
requirements
– Differently structured excel sheet or new
software
One alternative is selected
Phase 3: Component Design

Phase 4: Implementations


Implementing the new system is a crucial
step in the life cycle
Building components:
–
–
–

Testing
Integrating
Converting
Each piece must be developed separately
Phase 4: Implementations

Searching for data by:
–
–
–

New software:
–
–

Composer’s name
Name of student holding sheet music
Copy identifier number
Installed
Tested
When system proves satisfactory, user will
convert
Phase 5: System Maintenance




Users try ‘beta’ prototype
Hardware still has a bugs and kinks to iron
out
Beta testing allows users to report errors
Designers get feedback on what to fix and
enhance the system’s performance
