  • Systems Development Life Cycle
    Systems Development Life Cycle From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search For other uses, see SDLC (disambiguation). Model of the Systems Development Life Cycle with the Maintenance bubble highlighted. The Systems Development Life Cycle (SDLC), or Software Development Life Cycle in systems engineering, information systems and software engineering, is the process of creating or altering systems, and the models and methodologies that people use to develop these systems. The concept generally refers to computer or information systems. In software engineering the SDLC concept underpins many kinds of software development methodologies. These methodologies form the framework for planning and controlling the creation of an information system[1]: the software development process. Contents y 1 Overview y 2 History y 3 Systems development phases o 3.1 Requirements gathering and analysis o 3.2 Design o 3.3 Build or coding o 3.4 Testing o 3.5 Operations and maintenance y 4 Systems development life cycle topics o 4.1 Management and control o 4.2 Work breakdown structured organization o 4.3 Baselines in the SDLC o 4.4 Complementary to SDLC y 5 Strengths and weaknesses y 6 See also y 7 References y 8 Further reading y 9 External links [edit] Overview Systems and Development Life Cycle (SDLC) is a process used by a systems analyst to develop an information system, including requirements, validation, training, and user (stakeholder) ownership. Any SDLC should result in a high quality system that meets or exceeds customer expectations, reaches completion within time and cost estimates, works effectively and efficiently in the current and planned Information Technology infrastructure, and is inexpensive to maintain and cost-effective to enhance.[2] Computer systems are complex and often (especially with the recent rise of Service-Oriented Architecture) link multiple traditional systems potentially supplied by different software vendors.

  • Autobiographical Reminiscences
    SYSTEMS MOVEMENT: AUTOBIOGRAPHICAL REMINISCENCES John N. Warfield Integrative Sciences, Inc. 2673 Westcott Circle Palm Harbor, FL 34684-1746 Page 1 SYSTEMS MOVEMENT: AUTOBIOGRAPHICAL REMINISCENCES John N. Warfield Integrative Sciences, Inc. 2673 Westcott Circle Palm Harbor, FL 34684-1746 Introduction. I have been invited by George Klir to contribute to this journal “information regarding...thought processes and individual motivations” that animated my career in the systems movement. This invitation was right on target with my wishes for writing this article. At the outset I will tell the reader that my motivation was to develop a systems science; a science that extended all the way from its foundations through a sufficient number of applications to provide empirical evidence that the science was properly constructed and was very functional; a science that could withstand the most aggressive challenge. Part of my strategy was to discover any prior scientific work that had relevance and to show its place in the science. The motivation for developing such a science was founded in the belief that many problematic situations could readily be observed in the world, and that a properly constructed and documented systems science would provide the basis for resolving these situations. I now believe that I have succeeded in accomplishing what I set out to do. I also think that the reader will find this to be a very dubious statement, and that my challenge in this paper is to convince the reader that what I have said is true. The reader may keep this in mind in going through the paper, and may write challenges as the reading progresses.

Memorial Tributes: Volume 12 H A R O L D C H E S T N U T 1917–2001 Elected in 1974 “For contributions to the theory and practice of control systems, and systems engineering.” BY STEPHEN KAHNE SUBMITTED BY THE NAE HOME SECRETARY HAROLD CHESTNUT, engineer and visionary, died in Schenectady, New York, on August 29, 2001, at the age of 83. He was born a few miles from where he died, worked much of his life at the General Electric Company (GE) nearby, and made major contributions to engineering and the engineering profession throughout the world. Hal earned a B.S. (1939) and an M.S. (1940) in electrical engineering from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and was later awarded honorary doctorates in engineer- ing from Case Institute of Technology (1966) and Villanova University (1972). Although he was not an academician, he was involved in education from his early years as an engineer, when he was both a student and an instructor in the well-known GE Advanced Engineering Program (Electrical Engineering Course) from 1940 to 1943. At that time there were very few engineering doctoral programs at U.S. universities, and GE’s in-house program set a high standard for industry-developed advanced technical education attuned to the needs of the company. In the 1950s and 1960s, Hal wrote four textbooks in the fields of control and a two-volume work, Servomechanisms and Regulating Systems Design, coauthored with Robert W. Mayer (John Wiley & Sons, Volume 1 in 1951 and Volume 2 in 1955).

    MCE 510: INDUSTRIAL ENGINEERING – 3 Units- E Book Course Lecturer – Engr. Prof. Sam. B. ADEJUYIGBE Introduction to the Course This field pertains to the efficient use of machinery, labour, and raw materials in industrial production. It is particularly important from the viewpoint of costs and economics of production, safety of human operators, and the most advantageous deployment of automatic machinery Industrial engineering is the branch of engineering that is concerned with the efficient production of industrial goods as affected by elements such as plant and procedural design, the management of materials and energy, and the integration of workers within the overall system. It is the branch of engineering that deals with the creation and management of systems that integrate people and materials and energy in productive ways Industrial management applied science, engineering science, technology, engineering - the discipline dealing with the art or science of applying scientific knowledge to practical problems; "he had trouble deciding which branch of engineering to study" It is also defined as a branch of engineering dealing with the optimization of complex processes or systems. It is concerned with the development, improvement, implementation and evaluation of integrated systems of people, money, knowledge, information, equipment, energy, materials, analysis and synthesis, as well as the mathematical, physical and social sciences together with the principles and methods of engineering design to specify, predict, and evaluate the results to be obtained from such systems or processes. Its underlying concepts overlap considerably with certain business-oriented disciplines such as operations management, but the engineering side tends to emphasize extensive mathematical proficiency and usage of quantitative methods.
