<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">Analysis involves: </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">• Determining the solution requirements. What information does the solution have to provide? What data is needed to produce the information? What functions does the solution have to provide? These requirements
can be classified as being functional, namely what the solution is required to do, and non-functional, which describes the attributes the solution should possess, such as userfriendliness, reliability, portability, robustness, maintainability. Tools to assist
in determining the solution requirements include <b><span style="background:yellow">context diagrams, data flow diagrams and use cases.</span></b></span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""><snip></span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">Design involves:</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">• Planning how the solution will function, and the appearance of the resulting information. The solution design typically involves identifying what specific data is required and how the data will be named,
structured, validated and manipulated. Typical design tools for this purpose include data dictionaries and data structure diagrams, input-process-output (IPO) charts, flowcharts, pseudocode, object descriptions. Solution design also involves, where appropriate,
showing how the various components of a solution relate to one another, for example web pages, style sheets, scripts; queries, forms, reports; modules, procedures, functions. Typical design tools used to show relationships include storyboards, site maps, entity-relationship
diagrams, <b><span style="background:yellow">data flow diagrams</span></b>, structure charts, hierarchy charts,
<b><span style="background:yellow">context diagrams, use cases</span></b>. Planning the solution also involves determining the appearance of information generated from a solution. This typically involves identifying the position of text, images and graphics,
font sizes, colours and text enhancements. Design tools used for this purpose include layout diagrams, annotated diagrams/mocks up.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">I guess with the
<b>2012 Section A, Question 1</b> you could argue that, the answer is <b>B. Analysis
</b>due to the first line stating <i>“..investigating an existing information problem..”</i> indicates that is must be a use case diagram in the
<i>Analysis</i> section of the PSM. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">Do we need to teach students that if the question was instead
<i>“When planning a solution to an existing information problem, a use case diagram is developed.”</i> that the answer should have been

<p class="MsoNormal">It is an interesting point because there are logical design tools (e.g. UCD, context diagram) which are used during analysis to plan the requirements of a solution.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">• Determining the solution requirements. What information does the solution have to provide? What data is needed to produce the information? What functions does the solution have to provide? These requirements
can be classified as being functional, namely what the solution is required to do, and non-functional, which describes the attributes the solution should possess, such as userfriendliness, reliability, portability, robustness, maintainability. Tools to assist
in determining the solution requirements include <b><span style="background:yellow">context diagrams, data flow diagrams and use cases.</span></b></span><o:p></o:p></p>

<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">• Planning how the solution will function, and the appearance of the resulting information. The solution design typically involves identifying what specific data is required and how the data will be named,
structured, validated and manipulated. Typical design tools for this purpose include data dictionaries and data structure diagrams, input-process-output (IPO) charts, flowcharts, pseudocode, object descriptions. Solution design also involves, where appropriate,
showing how the various components of a solution relate to one another, for example web pages, style sheets, scripts; queries, forms, reports; modules, procedures, functions. Typical design tools used to show relationships include storyboards, site maps, entity-relationship
diagrams, <b><span style="background:yellow">data flow diagrams</span></b>, structure charts, hierarchy charts,
<b><span style="background:yellow">context diagrams, use cases</span></b>. Planning the solution also involves determining the appearance of information generated from a solution. This typically involves identifying the position of text, images and graphics,
font sizes, colours and text enhancements. Design tools used for this purpose include layout diagrams, annotated diagrams/mocks up.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
