Lecture Theatre LLT 4A

At the end of the course students should be able to: (i) Understand the principles, tools, and techniques for requirements elicitation, specification, and analysis; (ii) Demonstrate the role of requirements in system development and maintenance; and (iii) Appreciate the difficulties of specifying requirements for real systems, as well as effective methods tools and techniques. 

 The course is to equip students with knowledge of managing enterprise computer/data networks.

  The purpose of this course is to acquaint students with types of scientific research relevant for anyone working in the field of computer science. It will enable students to develop capacity to conduct small, simple research projects while at the university. Aims: The aims of the course are to provide the student with:

Course Description: Upon completion of this course, the student will have an understanding of the: Information needs of an organization and the role of information systems in providing them; Alternative ways to match the information systems function to the structure and behavior of the organization; The role of the CIO and other executives in managing an organization’s IS f unction; and understanding of managerial and organizational performance and of strategic decision making, in a competitive business environment.

Course Description: The objective of this course is to give the student experience in developing independent skills and implementing non-trivial programming/ research projects.   

The course gives students theoretical and practical skills in modelling and simulation of dynamic systems with a view of learning their behaviour and the sensitivity of that behaviour to certain parameters.                                                                                                                                                                                                Indicative Content: Simulation of operational systems, Simulation as a decision making methodology, Model development and validation, Design of simulation experiments, Generation of

 This course introduces established and evolving methodologies for the analysis and design of an information system. Great emphasis is placed on system characteristics, managing projects, prototyping, CASE/OOM tools, systems development life cycle phases, the role of the systems analyst, systems selection, definition of systems requirements, feasibility analysis, system design, and system architecture are topics included. Upon completion, students should be able to analyze a problem and design an appropriate solution using a combination of tools and techniques.   

 At the completion of the course, the student should be able: To identify ways to use IT to leverage business opportunities in different areas of responsibility. Understand the need for organizations to develop information vision, IT architecture, and strategic and operational IT plans and be able to participate in these processes.
