All activities are conducted within a business simulation called “Maple Ridge Engineering” and are based on real-life consulting experiences.

Customer Reviews

This book starts with the fundamental aspects of a system, its life cycles and then goes into data gathering and system design. I think it is an excellent book to start with for persons in MIS/ computer related fields.the book alos comes with a software in which various CASE tools are featured.The hypercase experience is most interesting where actually u interview people taking the role of a systems analyst.
