An information system is a collection of hardware, software, people, and procedure that work together to produce information. In business, this technology is used to modify the existing information system or develop a new one. So the user needs to have an idea of the system development.
System Development:
System development is set of actions done to build an “information system”. System development activities are grouped into five phases. The collection of phases is called System Development Life Cycle (SDLC).
Explanation of Solution
Guidelines for system development:
System development should follow three guidelines. They are as follows:
Group all activities into phases:
System development activities should be grouped into phases. Mainly there are five system development phases which are planning, analysis, design, implementation, and finally support and security...

- Distinguish between functional, matrix, and project organizations. Describe how each structure in fluences project management.arrow_forwardProject Analysis, design, and implementation of a Smart City Management Application System features: A smart city has a number of smart buildings and smart streets. The users of the system have different roles and different privileges. The system components in addition to the different users, their roles and responsibilities are presented in the next paragraphs. Smart Buildings: Each building has a number of floors and each floor consists of a number of apartments. A building is characterized by its ID, type (residential, institutional, business, industrial), the smart street where it is located, in addition to the number of residents. Smart buildings integrate renewable energy sources (solar and/or wind) in order to power the building. Apartments in each building have IDs. Each apartment is equipped with a sensor node. These nodes contain the following components: Motion sensor Temperature sensor Humidity sensor Microcontroller Communication module a microcontroller and a…arrow_forwardProject Analysis, design, and implementation of a Smart City Management Application System features: A smart city has a number of smart buildings and smart streets.
