The systems analyst job carries into and beyond the implementation stage. Often, this is a confusing time for the client, who may not understand the complexities of these steps. You will need to research key terms and provide examples. The selection of appropriate sources establishes your credibility with clients. A “Research Methodology” Appendix allows your client to critically evaluate a study’s overall validity and reliability. In addition to research and presentation of ideas, this assessment will test your ability to explain technology concepts to non-technical clients. This assignment addresses two content areas: first, types of system architecture design requirements; and second, methods of testing systems for implementation. Instructions and Requirements When finalizing system requirements, it is helpful to return to previous parts of the SDLC and the design specifications. In this case, we want to review requirements related to architecture design. Your task is to explain the four primary types of nonfunctional requirements that can be important in designing the architecture. You’ll want to examine relevant subtypes and research examples of these types of requirements. The second main concept to explore this week is to review various testing methods – ways to verify that the system does what it was designed to do. As you are researching the examples, you will want to evaluate your sources and document it in a Research Methodology Appendix. You will need at least 3 sources beyond the textbook (the textbook does not count as a source). Appropriate academic or scholarly resources include books, academic journal articles, and published expert reports. Be wary of advertisements, opinion sources, and crowd-sourced documentation (like Wikipedia). There are two research methodology components: Process and Evaluation. For process, you will want to explain what was your method of research? How did you search for your examples? For source evaluation you will want to identify what makes your sources appropriate for this presentation? Why are they relevant? Documentation Prepare a PowerPoint with the following requirements. The outline below corresponds to the slides and information necessary for this assessment. For each slide, write in your own words. You are additionally required to use (at least) 3 quality/academic/scholarly resources beyond the textbook. Provide an APA in-text citation and an APA references slide(s) as part of the presentation. Images are encouraged. Presentation and layout matters. 1.  Cover slide, course, your name, and the date. 2.  Define the overall purpose of Operational Requirements 3.  Operational Requirements (subtype and example one) 4.  Operational Requirements (subtype and example two) 5.  Performance Requirements (overall purpose) 6.  Performance Requirements (subtype and example one) 7.  Performance Requirements (subtype and example two) 8.  Security Requirements (overall purpose) 9.  Security Requirements (subtype and example one) 10.                Security Requirements (subtype and example two) 11.                Cultural and Political Requirements (overall purpose) 12.                Cultural and Political Requirements (subtype and example one) 13.                Cultural and Political Requirements (subtype and example two) 14.                Unit Testing defined and example 15.                Integration Testing defined and example 16.                System Testing defined and example 17.                Acceptance Testing defined and example 18.                Summary 19.                Appendix: Research Methodology – Process 20.                Appendix: Research Methodology – Source Evaluation 21.                References slide(s) as needed Design notes: Use a design theme. Images and other visual aids are encouraged Creativity and visual presentation matters. The outline is a suggested, but not required structure. If you can compress two examples onto one slide you are welcome. If you need additional slides for documentation (especially research methodology) you can include more information. Ensure good readability (consider color, text size, etc.) Do not use animation or transitions. Do not include content in the notes area – every slide should be self-sufficient. Minimum Submission Requirements Proper notification of any resubmission, repurposing, or reworking of prior work This assessment should be a Microsoft Word (minimum 350 words) document, in addition to the title and reference pages. Respond to the questions in a thorough manner, providing specific examples of concepts, topics, definitions, and other elements asked for in the questions. Your submission should be highly organized, logical, and focused. Your submission should provide a clearly established and sustained viewpoint and purpose. Your writing should be well ordered, logical, and unified, as well as original and insightful.

Please review the attached assignment document: Written Project #1 Fire Alarm and Detection Systems-Rev 10-2020-Final Doc.docxPreview the document Make sure you read the Written Projects (1-2-3) Scope and Requirements Document -1.docxPreview the document before submitting. For this Project and after reading all the information on fire alarm systems, I want you to put yourself in the position of been asked to inspect (or witness an inspection) a facility’s Fire Alarm System.  In your paper I want you to address the following: 1.  What steps should you confirm/verify have been completed prior to doing any witness testing/inspections of the fire alarm system (There are some very important things to consider prior to doing any fire alarm testing). 2.  Take the reader through a sequence of events of testing and methods. You should mention the three different signals that a fire alarm system should report (Alarm, Supervisory, Trouble).  Here,  describe the devices that will give you each of those signals and how it might display on the FACP. 3. What would you expect to see happen upon activation of those inputs above? (types of notification devices for example and why) 4. If you were watching the maintenance personnel use a rather “unorthodox” method of testing, where in the codes could you cite to make sure it is done in a code compliant manner? What reference code/standard and chapter governs the testing of Fire Alarm Systems? 5. Assume that the facility has fire doors that have electric/magnetic hold-open devices.  What would you expect (interfaces) 6. After completion, what steps should be taken?

Assignment Overview For Case 4, you will answer the questions to the Travel Tours short case study. Travel Tours specializes in personalized travel packages at popular prices, and the company operates 12 offices in major U.S. cities. A key selling point is the company’s client management database, which includes preferences such as airline seating choices and favorite hotels. Travel Tours purchased a client management software as an off-the-shelf vendor package and modified the program to meet the company’s needs. The package has been operational for one year and has performed well. Travel Tours, however, is in the process of expanding its operation to include six additional locations. You have been called in as a consultant to help the company make some decisions about IT support. What performance and workload measurement issues should the company consider at the present time? What capacity planning issues should the company consider at the present time? Should the company establish a system baseline before the integration of the six new sites? Explain your answer. As an IT consultant, you must understand the client’s business. From that perspective, consider the impact of the Internet on the travel agency business. For Case 4, students will choose one of the following options to deliver the answers to the assignment. A 3-page paper, excluding cover page and references, in MS Word.

Module 09: Critical Thinking Critical Thinking: Scope of the Modern Company (105 points) In this module, we looked at technology-based industries and the management of innovation. For this week’s assignment, review Tesla: Disrupting the Auto Industry, Case 12 (in your textbook). Remember: A case study is a puzzle to be solved, so before reading and answering the specific case study questions, develop your proposed solution by following these five steps: Read the case study to identify the key issues and underlying issues. These issues are the principles and concepts of the course area which apply to the situation described in the case study. Record the facts from the case study which are relevant to the principles and concepts of the course area issues. The case may have extraneous information not relevant to the current course area. Your ability to differentiate between relevant and irrelevant information is an important aspect of case analysis, as it will inform the focus of your answers. Describe in some detail the actions that would address or correct the situation. Consider how you would support your solution with examples from experience or current real-life examples or cases from textbooks. Complete this initial analysis and then read the discussion questions. Typically, you will already have the answers to the questions but with a broader consideration. At this point, you can add the details and/or analytical tools required to solve the case. Case Study Questions: How are the conventional (internal-combustion-powered) automobile industry and the electric-powered automobile industry similar and how are they different? Was it a mistake for Tesla to open its patents? Why or why not? What is Tesla’s strategy? What role does innovation play in this strategy? How sustainable is Tesla’s competitive advantage? What changes in Tesla’s strategy or its management systems, if any, would you recommend? Your well-written paper should meet the following requirements: Be 4 to 5 pages in length, which does not include the required title and reference pages, which are never a part of the content minimum requirements. Use Saudi Electronic University academic writing standards and APA style guidelines. Support your submission with course material concepts, principles, and theories from the textbook and at least two scholarly, peer-reviewed journal articles unless the assignment calls for more. It is strongly encouraged that you submit all assignments into the Turnitin Originality Check before submitting it to your instructor for grading. If you are unsure how to submit an assignment into the Originality Check tool, review the Turnitin Originality Check—Student Guide for step-by-step instructions.
