This text focuses on a business rather than a technology perspective. As such, it emphasizes the mind-set of the systems analyst and project manager as opposed to that of the programmer. While this text focuses on object-oriented systems analysis and design and adheres to UML 2 standards, it also contains elements from other approaches, such as relational database system design, that remain a part of systems development in business organizations today.
