Description
Describing the process of producing a computer system, this book is written from the viewpoint of the managers and users acting within a partnership with the analysts. Very few prescriptive techniques are described, but the book sets out basic tasks which the system development team will be performing, and describes how users and managers can help. This book provides a case study which progresses from the beginning right through to implemented code combined with suitable background material on the theory and practice of commercial methodology. Written in a jargon-free style and using examples, this title should be of use to technical and non-technical users.
