Chapter 2 2

Information Systems Architecture Information Systems Architecture

(ISA) (ISA)

 Overall blueprint for organization’s information

systems

 Consists of:

  • (^) Data (Enterprise Data Model – simplified ER Diagram)
  • (^) Processes – data flow diagrams, process decomposition, etc.
  • (^) Data Network – topology diagram (as shown in next figure)
  • (^) People – people management using project management tools (Gantt charts, etc.)
  • (^) Events and Points in Time (when processes are performed)
  • (^) Reasons for events and rules (e.g. decision tables)

Chapter 2 4

Information Engineering Information Engineering

 (^) A data-oriented methodology to create and maintain information systems

 Top-down planning approach.

 (^) Four steps:

  • (^) Planning  (^) Results in an Information Systems Architecture
  • (^) Analysis  (^) Results in functional specifications …i.e. what we want
  • (^) Design  (^) Results in design specifications …i.e. how we’ll do it
  • (^) Implementation  (^) Results in final operational system
