Bisa diberikan pada perkuliahan pemodelan dan simulasi. Hal ini bersesuaian dengan Model Curriculum for Undergraduate Computer Information Systems. Meski pun tidak cukup meliputi kedua topik: 1) Analisa sistem; 2) Desain sistem.

… in structured analysis – including event partitioning, and the de-emphasis of modeling current physical systems. A superficial understanding of computer hardware, software, and programming is generally provided by an “introduction to computers” course that would precede the student’s exposure to an in-depth coverage of systems analysis.
Keseimbangan di antara:
1) Recognizing that some introductory material is necessary for student who has had an introduction to computers, but has never done any systems analysis, while also
2) realizing that the concepts of structured analysis are simple enough that they can be presented in substantial detail at the high school and college level.
… have had quite an impact on the overall acceptance of structured analysis. Many people argue whether structured analysis is relevant in an environment where users can create their own applications in a matter of hours or days –> Book on the subject of system analysis: the vastly more powerful technology available to system analysts and users alike has changed our focus and perspective.
System developers have had to cope with issues of database systems and real-time system, in addition to the “function-oriented” system originally addressed by structured analysis in the late 1970s.
This book discusses entity-relationship diagrams and state-transition diagrams, in addition to classical data-flow diagrams, and shows how all three models can be integrated; this integration of models will become more and more important over the coming years.
Sumber info waterfall software engineering adalah karya Edward Yourdon sebagai mana tertera di judul, diterbitkan oleh Prentice-Hall International Editions. Pemula perlu mempelajari: 1) The nature of systems; 2) Players in the systems game; 3) Tools of structured analysis; 4) The project life cycle; 5) Major issues in systems analysis development; 6) Changes in systems analysis.
Classic material on structured analysis that was first published in the late 1970s. When Tom De Marco wrote Structured Analysis and System Specification, and Chris Gane and Trish Sarson wrote Structured System Analysis: Tools and Techniques,
there were no fourth generation programming languages, and there were no prototyping tools available for systems developers. Personal computers did not exist in those days, not with standing some of the early, primitive machines from Apple and Radio Shack.
There were no workstation-based software products that would help the system analyst create data-flow diagrams.
