You will know that you understand the process of systems design when you can:
Describe the design phase in terms of your information building blocks.
Identify and differentiate between several systems design strategies.
Describe the design phase tasks in terms of a computer-based solution for an
in-house development project.
Describe the design phase in terms of a computer-based solution involving
procurement of a commercial systems software solution.
Although some techniques of systems design are introduced in this chapter, it is not
the intent of this chapter to teach the techniques of systems design. This chapter
teaches only the process of systems design and introduces you to some techniques that
will be taught in later chapters.
