The document discusses various fact-finding techniques used by systems analysts to identify requirements, including sampling existing documentation, observation, questionnaires, interviews, prototyping, and joint requirements planning. It describes the difference between functional and non-functional requirements, and the importance of properly identifying and managing requirements to avoid cost overruns, delays, user dissatisfaction, and other issues. The fact-finding process involves problem analysis, requirements discovery, documentation, and ongoing management of requirements as needs change over the project lifecycle.
The document describes several methods for collecting information during the initial systems analysis stage: observation, examining documents, questionnaires, and interviews. Observation allows analysts to see real work processes and how data flows. Examining documents provides information on what documents are used currently. Questionnaires can gather data from many people but have low response rates. Interviews are the most important technique as they allow analysts to clarify any unclear answers. Collecting information from multiple sources helps analysts understand current systems and user needs.
This document outlines four methods for fact finding: observation, examination of documents, questionnaires, and interviews. It provides details on each method, including advantages and disadvantages. The key methods are observation to see what actually happens, examining documents like forms and reports used in the current system, distributing questionnaires to gather information from many people, and conducting interviews to ask follow-up questions and clarify misunderstandings. A recommended fact-finding strategy is to start by learning from existing materials, then observe the system, distribute questionnaires, conduct interviews, and follow up to verify the collected facts.

The fact finding stage (assessing societal factors)Unggul DJatmika
This document presents a presentation on assessing societal factors in curriculum and materials development. It discusses the curriculum development process and outlines four major sections to consider when fact-finding: 1) the language setting, 2) patterns of language use in society, 3) group and individual attitudes toward language, and 4) the political and national context. The presentation provides information on each section, including the roles of language in education, labor market, and modernization. It emphasizes understanding learners, teachers, and why the program is necessary by considering the societal factors that influence curriculum design.
This presentation is aimed to stimulate improvement at requirements review, with the intent of improving defect injection. Some specific mention is made of non-functional requirements - specifically performance and security. This is one slide pack of a set.
This chapter discusses techniques for discovering requirements for new systems. It defines requirements and differentiates between functional and non-functional requirements. It then describes several fact-finding techniques analysts can use to identify requirements, including sampling documentation, observation, interviews, questionnaires, prototyping, and joint requirements planning sessions. It emphasizes the importance of documenting requirements and managing changes to requirements over the system development lifecycle.
The document discusses Clearworks' approach to requirements gathering and documentation for new products, services, and internal systems.

Management information system question and answerspradeep acharya
This document discusses management information systems and related topics. It covers external forces like competition and internal factors like the need for knowledge-intensive work that are driving changes in information systems. It also discusses the components of information systems, including input/output processes and data processing. Steps in the system development life cycle are outlined. The advantages and disadvantages of enterprise resource planning systems are listed. The distinction between system software and application software is explained. Network security defenses like firewalls and their role in protecting information are described.
Work sampling is a technique used to determine the percentage of time workers or machines spend in different states like working, idle, etc. This is done by taking a large number of instantaneous random observations over time. The ratio of observations where a worker/machine is engaged in a particular activity to the total observations gives the percentage of time spent on that activity. Taking a large number of random samples improves the accuracy of the results.

The input design document discusses how to link an information system to users through data input. It focuses on controlling the amount of input required, avoiding errors and delays, and keeping the input process simple. The input is designed to provide security, ease of use, and privacy. Objectives of input design are to convert user-oriented descriptions into a computer-based system, create user-friendly screens to handle large data volumes, and provide validation and error messages.
The output design discusses how to clearly present processing results to users and other systems. It should be designed efficiently and intelligently to improve decision making. Objectives are to identify needed output, select presentation methods, and create reports and formats containing system-generated information to convey
