For each of the following 4 questions, in 100-200 words per question, explain if you agree or disagree with the statement and why.Use outside references to validate your claim.
• When performing a feasibility analysis, is it necessary to decompose large systems into layers before proceeding with a newsystem design or reengineer effort?
• Should a system architecture effort be mostly centered on the hardware platforms in play at an organization?
• When tasked with designing a new system, is it necessary that all systems that interface with the targetsystem also beupgraded to the current technology to be used? Think version levels (e.g., operating system, hardware, applications like Java).
• Can a new system design be pursued while excluding any of the following considerations?
? Budget
? Technical staff competence and expertise
? Workforce training
(Please explain your opinion for each area.)

The software development life cycle (SDLC) is a method used to developing information systems with the following four traditional
phases:
1. Planning
2. Analysis
3. Design
4. Implementation
Consider this scenario: You are an IT consultant, and you have been approached by an entrepreneur in need of abusiness plan toobtain funding. Part of this business plan centers on an IT presence. Create a 2pageexecutivesummary that explains how the SDLCapplies to your customer's organization. Be creative. You can select anybusiness you like, but remember the conversation must focuson IT operations, particularly a system design orsoftware or application presence. Introduce the organization, providing itsbackground and a breakdown of the task at hand.

Part 2: Include graphical aids in your final draft to show the application flow. Flow charts help in showing the application flow of your software.Visio and other smart draw applications are preferred. The notes pane underneath each slideshould be used to expand on talkingpoints presented on the slide.
