Features:

• Object-oriented Analysis and Design and UML - Introduction to Systems Analysis andDesign explains why students need to become more familiar with Object-Oriented systems analysis and design. UML based object oriented analysis and design is integrated throughout the text.



• System Architect - The use of automated tools for systems analysis, design, and construction is once again reinforced throughout the book. The latest version of System Architect, a modeling and drawing tool for systems analysis and design, is packaged with the book.



• No Systems Architecture Framework - While this method is still important to many and a big reason for the success of Whitten’s SA&D Methods, removing it makes the subject more accessible to intro level students.



• Streamlined Chapter Content - The last layer of depth has been removed from each subject, allowing instructors to cover more ground with fewer distractions.
