Task P3.1 Database Design of Computer Choice

Detail level design and implementation of SSADM for Computer Choice is giving in Task P2.1 and including all the stages of SSADM explanation and how it convert requirement to a proper database design for the Computer Choice Case given in the assignment.

 

Phase 1: Feasibility Study 

Prepare for the feasibility study: Feasibility Study is conducted for ComputerChoice requirement and Problem statement and found it is technically feasible based on Dataflow diagrams shown below and other parameter of requirement.

Below is the Level 0 Dataflow Diagram help us to understand System at higher level. The business area of computer choice system is analyzed so that it is determine whether a system can cost effectively and supports all the business requirements.

Database Management

 

Base on data flow of the system Dataflow Diagram is created as below

Phase 2: Requirements Analysis 

During stage 1: The requirements of the computer choice system which need to be developed are identified and all the processes carried out and the data structures involved in the business environment modelling.


Phase 3: Requirements Specification 

 

Module 3 Definition of Requirements is done and detailed functional and non-functional requirements are identified. New techniques are introduced which will help to define the required processing and data structures. Also detailing the already defined requirements is done in this stage for the chosen option from the previous stage.

 

Phase 4: Logical System Specification 

           

            In this stage, Technical systems options are made and the logical design is developed (MARTIN, james and finkelstein, clive, 1981)


Phase 5: Logical Design

 

It include ER diagram.

  

Phase 6: Physical Design 
             In this stage logical system specification and technical system specification are used to create Physical design of database  (FINKESTEIN, Clive, 1992)

 ComputerChoice Database Design is being done using SSADM (Structured Systems Analysis and Design Method) so that the System support for Successful business (DEMARCO, Tom, 1978)

 Task P3.2 Computer Choice Database snapshots

 

Table and forms are created using Open Office Base for the Computer Choice Case study given (YOURDON, Edward and Constantine, Larry L., 1979)

Task P3.3 Methods of improvement

Evaluation effectiveness of the database solution is done and database physical structure can be enhance to support high performance by using Hint, Indexing and tuning for the Computer Choice database solution and will help in future when data will be huge in database

 

The effective database management includes the services as follows:

a.      Security – user authentication and authorization improve Database effectiveness

b.     Compatibility -  Database should be compatible for all platform and technology

c.       Building and Expanding - codes the entire data and using application information can be easily retrieve by the organization as per their needs. Moreover this information can be selectively share with the external application using system services.

d.      Cleaning-up - The Cleaning-up Process is very useful and it effectively helpful for every organization to keeps the data cleaned and updated and database refresh when it is required. The Cleaning-up Process includes deletion of record which is  inaccurate and not be required in future, it also to merging of duplicate entries and creating E-mails using by organizations through E-mail formats.

e.      Daily updating -The Daily Updating Process contain the proper analysis which involves the analysis of information provided by an organization and it also involved recruitment process which outsourcing firm provides updated information to the organization through application about employee or  candidates, clients or customers, etc. (WINTER, 1998). 

 

Task P3.4 Details of diagrams

User Support Documentation

·        Design of Database is done using Visio based on SSADM methods

·        Double click on file.

·        database solution will open  and it will contain options button, tables, forms, queries and reports

·        Please click on required options button to view that option and select enable options if it will get pop up.

 Technical Documentation

·        Database concepts and details, please refer to 1.1, 1.2. 2.1

·        SSADM concept and details, please refer to 2.2

·        DED, Logical, physical diagram, ERD, normalisation please refer to 3.1

·        Tables, forms – 3.2

·        Queries and Report 3.3 

Conclusion

 

SSADM implementation is shown with the entire supporting diagram, Database is designed and created, screen shot of table, form and query is attached. 

Other task includes future improvement, user guide, and queries.
