A)Implementation
B)Object modeling
C)Physical design
D)Logical design

Accepted Answer

In the physical design phase, the logical specifications of the system from logical design are transformed into technology-specific details from which all programming and system construction can be accomplished. This phase involves deciding on hardware and software platforms, network infrastructure, and other technical specifications.

Question 9

Which of the following is correct with respect to the logical design?
A)All functional features of the system chosen for development in analysis are described independently of any computer platform.
B)Logical design does not concentrate on the business aspects of the system.
C)Logical design is tied to a specific hardware and software platform.
D)Technical specifications are developed.

Accepted Answer

Logical design is independent of any specific computer platform and is concerned with describing the functional features of the system, without reference to how they will be implemented or how the system will be physically realized. B, C, and D are incorrect because they are not true statements about logical design.

Question 10

In which phase of the SDLC is an information system systematically repaired and improved?
A)Implementation
B)Analysis
C)Design
D)Maintenance

Accepted Answer

Maintenance is the phase of the SDLC where an information system is systematically repaired and improved. During this phase, any bugs or issues are addressed, updates are made, and new features may be added to the system.

Question 11

What are the five major phases of the SDLC?

Accepted Answer

The answer of What are the five major phases of...

Question 12

What is a system development methodology?

Question 13

In which phase of the SDLC is the information system coded,tested,installed,and supported in the organization?
A)Implementation
B)Analysis
C)Design
D)Planning

Accepted Answer

The implementation phase is where the information system is actually built, tested, installed, and supported in the organization. This phase follows the design phase, where the system is planned out in detail, and precedes the maintenance and operations phase, where the system is continually monitored and upgraded as needed. The analysis phase comes first, where the problem or opportunity that the system is designed to address is identified and researched. The planning phase comes next, where the project scope, budget, and timeline are defined.

Question 14

Which of the below is a true statement regarding the systems development life cycle?
A)The SDLC is not iterative.
B)It is not possible to complete some activities in one phase in parallel with those of another phase.
C)The life cycle can be thought of as a circular process in which the end of the useful life of one system leads to the beginning of another project to develop a new version of or replace an existing system.
D)The life cycle can be thought of as a linear process in which the end of the useful life of one system leads to the beginning of another project to develop a new version of or replace an existing system.

Accepted Answer

The systems development life cycle (SDLC) is indeed iterative and can be thought of as a circular process, where the end of one system's life can lead to the beginning of a project to develop a new version or replace the existing system. This reflects the ongoing nature of system development and the need for updates or replacements as technology and business needs evolve.

Question 15

Which is the fourth phase in a SDLC cycle?
A)Maintenance
B)Analysis
C)Design
D)Implementation

Accepted Answer

The Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) typically follows these phases in order: 1) Requirement analysis, 2) Design, 3) Implementation (or coding), and 4) Testing. Therefore, the fourth phase is often considered to be Testing, not Implementation. However, if we strictly follow the options provided and consider Implementation as the phase where the actual development or coding is done, it can be seen as the third phase in many SDLC models. Maintenance is usually considered the final phase, following deployment or testing, depending on the model. Given the options and a common understanding of SDLC phases, none of the options accurately represents the fourth phase based on standard SDLC models, which typically include Testing as the fourth phase. This question seems to have a discrepancy in its structure or expected answers based on traditional SDLC phases.

Question 16

In which phase of the SDLC is the description of the recommended solution converted into logical and then physical system specifications?
A)Implementation
B)Analysis
C)Design
D)Planning

Accepted Answer

The phase in which the description of the recommended solution is converted into logical and then physical system specifications is the design phase of the SDLC. This phase focuses on creating a detailed plan for how the system will be constructed and includes creating data models, designing the architecture, and determining how the system will interface with other systems.

Question 17

What is the first phase in the Systems Development Life Cycle?
A)Analysis
B)Design
C)Planning
D)Procedure

Accepted Answer

The first phase in the Systems Development Life Cycle is planning. This involves defining the scope of the project, identifying the goals and objectives, determining the feasibility of the project, and developing a project plan.
