Week 4 Discussions

Introduction

In this week's reading, you have learned about two approaches to analysis. You learned about Structured Analysis in Chapters 8 and 9. You learned about Object Oriented Analysis in Chapter 10. In this week's two discussion threads you will have the opportunity to compare the two approaches.

Thread 1 (perform some research)

Explain the differences between Structured Analysis and Object Oriented Analysis. Provide references for your sources of information including the date that the information was published. If you can't find an exact year, estimate the year that the information was published and indicate in your reference that the year was estimated. You can use the text book and/or the internet. Consider using search terms like "dfd vs. oo", "structured analysis" "uml" "object oriented analysis".

In the second half of the week, comment on at least once in this discussion thread.

Thread 2 (express an opinion)

Why do you think the book taught both analysis approachs? Which one do you think will be more useful to you in the future? Why?

In the second half of the week, comment at least once in this discussion thread.
