Tugas – True Or False : System Design
1. Information systems design is defined as those tasks that focus on evaluating the feasibility
of the system.
A. True
B. False
2. Model-driven design emphasizes the drawing of pictorial system models to document the
technical or implementation aspects of a system.
A. True
B. False
3. Synonyms for modern structured design are: bottom-up prototype design and joint object
programming.
A. True
B. False
4. Structured design seeks to factor a program into the top-down hierarchy of modules that
should have the following properties - (1) modules should be loosely cohesive; and (2)
modules should be tightly coupled.
A. True
B. False
5. When modules are loosely coupled, modules are minimally dependent on one another. This
minimizes the effect that future changes in one module will have on other modules.
A. True
B. False
6. When modules are highly coupled, each module should accomplish one and only one
function. This makes modules reusable in future programs.
A. True
B. False
7. The data model chart is derived by studying the flow of data through the program.
Structured design is performed during systems analysis.
A. True
B. False
8. The primary tool of information engineering (IE) is the structure chart (also known as the
entity-relationship diagram).
A. True
B. False
9. A disadvantage of prototyping is that iteration and change are a natural consequence of
systems development. It allows the end-users to change their minds too often.
A. True
B. False
10. An advantage of prototypes is that they are an active, not passive, model that end-users
can see, touch, feel and experience.
A. True
B. False
11. An advantage of prototyping is that it can accelerate several phases of the life cycle,
possibly bypassing the programmer. It consolidates parts of phases that normally occur
one after the other.
A. True
B. False
12. An advantage of prototyping is that you can substitute any prototype for a paper
specification. The need for a paper design is eliminated.
A. True
B. False
13. An advantage of prototyping is that it often leads to an early commitment to a design
(usually the first one implemented).
A. True
B. False
14. Rapid application development (RAD) techniques are used to refine the object
requirements identified earlier during analysis, and to define and design specific objects.
A. True
B. False
15. Joint application development (JAD) is a technique that combines structured design
object-oriented design, and information engineering, to develop a more complete entityrelationship diagram and project dictionary.
A. True
B. False
16. A database schema is the structural model for a database. It is a picture or map of the
records and relationships to be implemented by the database.
A. True
B. False
17. Reports and other outputs are usually printed directly onto paper or displayed on a
terminal screen.
A. True
B. False
18. As we approach the completion of the design phase, it is no longer necessary to reevaluate the project for feasibility.
A. True
B. False
19. The request for quotation (RFQ) is used when you have already decided on the specific
product, but that product can be acquired from different distributors.
A. True
B. False
20. The request for quotation (RFQ) is used when several different vendors and/or products
are candidates and you want to solicit competitive proposals and quotes. Its purpose is to
communicate requirements and desired features to prospective vendors.
A. True
B. False
