Introduction:
Information Systems and Software Development is a very
dynamic,growing and important research area. It provides the finest
and thefastest way for solving the typical problems. Designing,
developing,implementing, and functioning a system involves a wide
range ofdisciplines and many application-specific constraints. To
make sense ofand take full advantage of these systems, an excellent
approach isneeded? As software development plays a major role for
successfullyrun of information systems and also a good segment of
researchers arefocusing on this area. Although this field is mature
with many aspectsbut the main issue with this technology is related
to its concrete linkbetween software development and information
systems, as it is highlyimportant factor as of all functional
requirements based on it.
Researchers suggested so many different ways for the best use
ofinformation systems and software developments. But it still need
to beconsider more, for getting more accurate and precise results
byapplying new trends and techniques including merging the concepts
ofboth.
Objective of the Book:

Information Systems Design
2/4
This book aims to provide a comprehensive reference for
InformationSystems and Software Development by covering all
important topicsincluding the information systems and software
development life cycle,systems and software processes, functional
and non-functionalrequirements, managing software development and
software quality,
metrics and technology. In addition Software Development
Techniquesfor Constructive Information Systems Design will focus on
research andexperience that could contribute to the improvement of
informationsystems and software development practices. The book's
scopeincludes methods, techniques and technology to better
engineersoftware and manage its development. It will extend the
growingliterature on the emerging technologies and innovationsin
the field ofSoftware development techniques and Information System
Design.There is a need for recent edited book that focuses in
merging theconcept of information systems and software
developmentperspectives. Some edited books focus in each
perspective
individually. However, merging both perspectives gives a clear
viewabout the current and future developments in information system
andsoftware development.
Target Audience:
This book would serve a broad audience including
researchers,academicians, students, and working professionals in
the field ofinformation systems and software development.
Recommended Topics for Chapter Proposals:
Papers or chapters submitted for review should have a clear
component of information systems analysis and design,
softwareengineering or address ways to improve the engineering
andmanagement of information systems and software development.
Recommended topics include, but are not limited to, the
following:
Introduction and Overview of Information Systems and
Software
Development.
information systems and software development life cycle,
systems and software processes,
functional and non-functional requirements,
diagrams and representations,
managing software development,
software quality, metrics and technology,
software architecture, modeling, design and programming,
Software testing and verification and validation.
