5.Discuss why some systems developers believe that a data model is one of the most
important parts of the statement of information system requirements
Ans

the characteristics of data captured during data modeling are crucial in the design of


data rather than processes are the most complex aspects of many modern
information systems and thus require a central role in structuring system
requirements.

the characteristics about data are reasonably permanen
8. List and briefly describe the five activities of systems analysis.
Ans

- Evaluate requirements
9. What is the difference between functional requirements and non-functional
requirements?
Ans
- Functional requirements are things the system does.
- Non-functional requirements are quality attributes or aspects of how the system is designed,
built or implemented.
