The project involves the analysis and design of an information system. The project should include the following elements:
Title page
Table of contents
General description of the system
Description of the current and potential information system problems, and
Description of the purpose and scope of the study
a)airline (or train, cruise, concert, or other) ticket purchase
b)shopping sites on the internet
c)Online banks and financial institutions
d)Online insurance (life, medical, homeowner, and others) purchase
e)Rentals (car, video, audio, and others)
Next, your project should document the information system requirements using text, models of the future system. The models should follow the Structural or UML object-oriented method.
Project Description
The project should address a real life situation and be implemental. Search the Internet for B-C e-commerce systems that you can use. For example, the following are good sources:
You can also use traditional firms if you can get the requisite permission from the appropriate people. Also, they should be able to provide you with the data to complete your project.
For the firm you have chosen, identify the major functions that a firm can perform.
Document each function. Figure out the process used in each function, the inputs used, and the outputs generated. However, web pages alone will be inadequate. You have to use your knowledge about the industry/firm/function to identify other data used by the system.
Identify at least two problems or limitations related to the functionality. The limitations could be new functions that could be useful to a potential customer or improvements over existing functions.
Model the system using structural analysis models or object-oriented analysis models.
Analyze the models and propose a new system.
Transform the models into detailed design
