"With expanding urban settlements, increasing demand for resources, and exacerbating environmental challenges, the complexity of future urban and regional systems is expected to increase. Information systems for planning and managing land use policy implementation will therefore become indispensable tools in the urban planning and land administration toolboxes. In this course students learn to think in systems terms and use systems analysis and design methods to not only describe the functionality of an information system but, perhaps more importantly, to describe the data, information structures, processes, states, and state evolutions of interest within the urban and/or regional system under consideration. The course introduces the software process as a project implementation methodology. Analysis and design approaches are introduced in the context of this overarching structure. First students will learn to analyse requirements documents to conceptualize a system's purpose and boundary. Additional information from the domain and requirements documents will be used to develop a conceptual model of the domain and identify user actions and processes within the domain. UML class diagrams will be used to structure concepts. UML use case diagrams and activity diagrams will be used to analyse user intentions, actions, and the information system's responses. Finally UML state machines will allow student to describe the set of states that can be occupied by all or part of the system being modelled. The modeling constructs introduced are applicable to both the information system and the real world domain. Examples will help clarify how to apply the tool in both contexts. "@en .
