Systems Analysis and Design:
(1) A frequently asked question is "Can structured techniques and object-oriented techniques be mixed? In other words, is it possible to do structured analysis and then object-oriented design of the application or vice versa?" In some situations, it may be possible to mix and match, such as when designing and implementing the interface using OO after completing traditional structured analysis. In two paragraphs explain.
(2) How widely used are design patterns in today's development environments? Many programmers in the world today are self-taught. Do you think they have learned about design patterns? Do you think they are better off or perhaps worse from not having a formal programming education?
(3) Briefly discuss the distributed database architectures:
-replicated database servers
-partitioned database servers
-cloud-based database servers.
