DESCRIPTION:
"The book is solidly grounded in the application of theory … .A very comprehensive book that junior or student systems analysts would find helpful for fundamental concepts." (The Computer Journal, January 2009) "…a real-world view of systems and how best to analyze them…recommended." (CHOICE, December 2007)
This book focuses on systems analysis, broadly defined to also include problem formulation and interpretation of proposed alternatives in terms of the value systems of stakeholders. Thus the book can be used as a stand-alone book for teaching the analysis of systems. Also unique is the inclusion of broad case studies to stress problem solving issues, making How to Do Systems Analysis a complement to the many fine works in systems engineering available today.. The nature of problem solving discussed in this book is appropriate to a wide range of systems analyses. Therefore, the book is a complement, not a substitute to other books when teaching systems engineering and systems analysis
Highly Recommended This book laid the groundwork for my degree in systems engineering. The concepts are easy to understand and apply in new situations. Highly recommended to anyone interested in systems engineering or how to elevate the way you approach a problem.. steven overstreet said Highly recommend. This text takes a common sense, real world approach to conducting systems analysis. The techniques explained in this text provide a usable framework that is easily implemented in short time. Also, these principles scale up or down regardless of project size or discipline. Highly recommend to both the experienced practitioner or the newcomer.. Doing is the hard part Ms S Bailey 'Doing' systems analysis is the hard part so I selected this book to help me apply systems analysis in framing my PhD topic. Great book.
