Example 1. Active Directory Diagram - Structure Diagram
Active Directory uses Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP). LDAP operates above TCP/IP and defines ways of address and access to objects between the client and Active Directory server. Accordingly to LDAP protocol each object in catalogue has its unique Distinguished Name, and this name distinguishes the object from other Active Directory objects and also prompts where the given object is located. Distinguished Name consists of common name (CN) and domain component – domain constituent. Common name defines an object or a container in which this object is positioned whereas the domain component defines the domain where this object is located. Besides in the distinguished name there could be indicated the organization which the object belongs to.
Logical elements of the Active Directory are objects, containers (OU), trees, domains and forests.
Object is a definite set of attributes having its unique name e.g. a user of the network. Accordingly to LDAP protocol, each object in the catalogue has its unique Distinguished Name and this name distinguishes it from other objects of Active Directory and also hints us where the given object is located.
Unlike the object, the container does not have physical presentation, and presents the totality of objects and other containers in the network structure.
The tree defines the hierarchy and ties between objects.
Domain is a separate safety area in the structure of the computer network. Correspondingly domains tree is the totality of domains connected between each other in a certain consecution. Domain tree can be presented in the form of a tree of established trusting relations between domains or in the form of the tree on the basis of a space of names.
The forest is the totality of several trees which do not create uninterrupted area of names. All trees of the forest have the same scheme, configuration and global catalogue. All trees are connected by trusting relations by the Kerberos protocol. The forest in contrast to a tree must not have a distinguished name. The forest exists as the totality of objects, cross links and trusting relations by the Kerberos protocol, known to trees which form this forest.
Site is a location in the network, where servers of services of Active Directory catalogues are kept. Active Directory diagram represents the scheme of correlations of service components with the preset degree of the detailed elaboration. For example this can be the level of objects or the level of sites.
Designing the Active Directory Diagram in ConceptDraw DIAGRAM use the extensive drawing tools of the Active Directory Diagrams Solution, templates, samples, and variety of ready-to-use objects from the solution's libraries.

Semiconductors are crystalline or amorphous solids with distinct electrical characteristics. They are of high resistance — higher than typical resistance materials, but still of much lower resistance than insulators. Their resistance decreases as their temperature increases, which is behavior opposite to that of a metal. Finally, their conducting properties may be altered in useful ways by the deliberate, controlled introduction of impurities into the crystal structure, which lowers its resistance but also permits the creation of semiconductor junctions between differently-doped regions of the extrinsic semiconductor crystal. The behavior of charge carriers which include electrons, ions and electron holes at these junctions is the basis of diodes, transistors and all modern electronics.

A database is a data collection, structured into some conceptual model. Two most common approaches of developing data models are UML diagrams and ER-model diagrams. There are several notations of entity-relationship diagram symbols and their meaning is slightly different. Crow’s Foot notation is quite descriptive and easy to understand, meanwhile, the Chen notation is great for conceptual modeling.
An entity relationship diagrams look very simple to a flowcharts. The main difference is the symbols provided by specific ERD notations. There are several models applied in entity-relationship diagrams: conceptual, logical and physical. Creating an entity relationship diagram requires using a specific notation. There are five main components of common ERD notations: Entities, Actions, Attributes, Cardinality and Connections. The two of notations most widely used for creating ERD are Chen notation and Crow foot notation. By the way, the Crow foot notation originates from the Chen notation - it is an adapted version of the Chen notation.
