...Logical Design and Physical Design CMGT 555/ Systems Analysis and Development Throughout the whole process of system development, there are designs that take place before any coding or setup takes place. During this time, phrases like logical design and physical design get tossed around a lot, but what are they and what do they mean? In short, the logical design defines what must take place, not how it is accomplished. The logical design is like a set of blue prints, it describes the actual processes of entering, verifying, and storing data. In this paper we will explain when logical designs and physical designs are used, what design information a logical design and physical design contain and any similarities or differences. Figure 1. Example of Logical Model and Physical Model for an ERD Relationship Diagram (Compare Logical and Physical ERD, 2009) The direct definition of a logical design “is the Conceptual Blueprint of a software application, illustrating entities, relationships, rules, and processes (Thibeault, 2011)”. So what is the logical design is used for? The logical design contains all the business entries, what each entries attributes are, and relationships among entries. Now the logical design to some is misleading because they often confuse it with detailed technical design, even though the goals for these two are not similar at all. Now when do we use the logical design? That question is simpler to answer; it usually starts during the requirements...

...Physical Design and Implementation Strayer University Physical Design and Implementation SQL Injection is one of the many web attack mechanisms used by hackers to steal data from organizations. It is perhaps one of the most common application layer attack techniques used today. It is the type of attack that takes advantage of improper coding of your web applications that allows hacker to inject SQL commands into say a login form to allow them to gain access to the data held within your database. In essence, SQL Injection arises because the fields available for user input allow SQL statements to pass through and query the database directly. SQL Injection is the hacking technique which attempts to pass SQL commands (statements) through a web application for execution by the backend database. If not sanitized properly, web applications may result in SQL Injection attacks that allow hackers to view information from the database and/or even wipe it out. Oracle database privileges are of two types, system privileges and object privileges. The system privileges grant users power to perform the specified actions system-wide, whereas the object privileges let users perform particular actions on specified database objects. Microsoft SQL Server allows individual users to create private objects in the database. The system records the owner of every user object. Users can access objects only if the owner of the object has granted them access. Administrators can define...

...After a brief research of the latest versions of the following database management systems (DBMSs) on the market: Oracle 11G, Microsoft SQL Server, MySQL, and IBM DB2. I found the following information about each DBMS’s. Oracle 11G The biggest advantage Oracle 11G has is that it can help you create customized database applications. Instead of getting a standardized database program out of the box, you get a program that can be customized to fit your needs. This makes it possible to create a database that only has the features you need. Another advantage is Data Mining. It makes it possible to find relationships in data that would otherwise be difficult to find on your own. As good as the above sounds it also comes with a couple of BIG disadvantages. The biggest would be the cost, if you plan on using the program on multiple computers, you will need to buy licenses for each computer. If you plan on making the software available on many computers, these costs can really add up. Another big disadvantage is it comes with a learning curve; this is not something that you can pick up in a short period of time. Microsoft SQL Server MS SQL Server is a Client-server relational database system, with no UI development tools built in. Some of it advantages are, Maintenance its has lots of tools for maintenance, can do most of it with users in DB. It is user friendly, great security, it minimizes redundancy, and it is very consistent. It also works great on an enterprise scale it is designed...

While enhancing thermal characteristics, the solid–liquid mixtures present an unavoidable disadvantage in terms of pumping cost for economic operation of thermal-fluid systems. In addition, there is a lack of agreement between experimental data provided in the literature. The present work found that there would be no comprehensible design strategy in developing nanofluids. In this work, the Axiomatic Design (AD) theory is applied to systemize the design of nanofluids in order to bring its practical use forward. According to the Independence Axiom of the AD theory, the excessive couplings between the functional requirements and the parameters of a nanofluid system prevent from meeting the functional goals of the entire system. At a parametric level, the design of a nanofluid system is inherently coupled due to...

...to the SDLC: (1) planning and selection, (2) analysis, (3) design, and (4) implementation and operation. The first phase in the SDLC is when the organization’s total information system needs are analyzed and arranged. The result of this phase is a potential information systems project is identified. The systems analyst prioritizes and translates the needs of Hoosier Burger and translates the needs into a written plan. The fact of the matter is that Hoosier Burger is processing business by a method of paper-based system, suggesting a valid argument for continuing with the SDLC approach. Systems analysis, the second phase, is when the analyst will thoroughly study the organization’s current procedures to perform the tasks. The analyst must work with users to determine what the users want from the proposed system. For Hoosier Burger, the tasks are inventory control, customer ordering, and management reporting. The systems analysis phase of SDLC is when an alternative replacement system is proposed. Phase three is systems design. This is when the analyst converts the description of the recommended alternative solution into a logical and then physical system specification. According to Valacich (2009), phase three is when “…you must design all aspects of the system from input and output screens to reports, databases, and computer processes…” (Valacich 18). The final product of the design phase is the physical system...

...Theory of Architecture 2: Manuals Architectural Design Process and Methodologies The question of the actual design process and methodology of design is more confusing when dealing with architectural design because architectural design more often involves in a team work. Before, most architects are considered more of an artist; they can design but was not able to explain or defends the need to add a significant amount of funds for the particular design. In today’s architectural trends, there are set of rules and guidelines to be followed that could affect or help in making a design. The process should involve the following step. [TSSF Inc.] 1. Assemble the team – As stated above the architectural design involves a team of people. At the outset of the project there should be a scheduling or at least a tentative assembly of efficient architects and consultant who identify the project’s scope and purpose. There should be a project’s team leader who holds the overall responsibility and identifying the right person/s in their fields. 2. Clear Communication – As again stated before, the design part involves a team. The communication should be always available for any enquiry of the different involves, especially for the owner or their representative/s. The Project Architect coordinates regular meetings to design staff, specialists and the Owner’s representative. 3. Budget and Cost Control - Cost control is critical to the success of any project. This is true...

...The optimum design selection for this project is design 03. This design was selected by considering several factors. The first factor which was considered is the complexity of the circuit design. As there are two processors the work load is divided and therefore error percentage can is reduced. Sensor interfacing is carried out with the microcontroller and the GSM and PC interfacing is done using the arduino. If an error occur in the system it will be easily troubleshoot as the system is virtually divided and three different program codes are being used. When comparing with the other two designs the work load will more on the processor therefore it will affect the accuracy and the effectiveness of those system in the long run. In data transmission design 01 has used a RF for wireless communication, and the design 02 has used a Bluetooth device for its wireless data communication. As the system is wireless there will be various interferences from other equipment, result in errors in the system. And if this system is implemented in a small nursing home or a hospital, the radio frequency signals may be interfere with other medical equipment which will cause instability in this system as well as other equipment too....

Background 1.1 Microwave amplifier stub-matching design The design and implementation of stub networks require more than just the paper design of a matching circuit. Several practical considerations must be taken into account, such as the effects of parasitic components on the network. During the design process the designer must consider all the factors influencing the design. Sometimes this implies that the designer must follow an iterative process where the parameters are adjusted until the design is optimal for the application. 1.2 Implementation of a stub-matching network The design and implementation can be summarized in the following steps: 1. 2. 3. 4. Interpretation of requirements – understanding what must be constructed; Compilation of specification – state what must be designed and built; Component selection – identification and costing of materials and parts; Detail design, including the following: a. Calculation of the matching network’s parameters; b. Evaluation of theoretical performance (does it work, and how well?); c. Analysis of sensitivity with respect to design parameters; 5.
