Process Modelling and Design of IS

Course menu

Process Modelling and Design of IS

Data is displayed for the academic year: 2025./2026.

Course Description

Students should note that each complex organizational (or object) system has its own information (sub)system that allows its efficient operation, system management, and growth and development in changing conditions. The requirements for the new IS must be made based on the analysis of organization''s business processes. During the course student should acquire knowledge about structural and objective methods for planning, analysis, design and implementation of IS and methodologies for IT engineering. Based on the acquired theoretical knowledge, students must be able to realize, by applying new information technologies, all phases of the life cycle of each IS using CASE tools. For the designed IS, students should be able to evaluate the quality and the expected effects of the proposed IS, as well as to plan the maintenance and further development of the new IS.
