Have you watched the scene on roads when it starts raining. … ha ha its funny scene. Some people try to escape by running/ some try to take shelter under other’s roof / some take bag or books magazines on their head and try to escape.

...Analyzing and Developing a Successful Real Estate Information System Plan Jon A. Snyder Park University Management/Computer Information Systems IS 315 Computer Sys Analysis & Design I Annette M. Story February 27, 2012 Abstract Since information systems become more and more important in our today’s society, business firms, organizations, and individuals rely on these systems to manage their daily business and social activities. Hence, it becomes more and more important not only to support the efficient development of such systems but the modification and adaption of once deployed information systems need to be supported, too. Since complex requirements and the technical progress of computer systems lead to a high complexity of computer systems, the use of software models helps to manage system’s complexity and provides a tool for communication and documentation purposes. In particular for web-based information systems, a number of model driven approaches were developed. However, I believe that compared to the user interface layer and the persistency layer, there could be a better support of consistent approaches providing a suitable architecture for the consistent model driven development of business logic from early analysis until system maintenance. Analyzing and Developing a Successful Real Estate Information System Plan System analysis and design consists of four major phases and they are the planning phase, the analysis phase, the design phase and...
