Structured Systems Analysis and Design Method. SSADM with ConceptDraw DIAGRAM

Structured Systems Analysis and Design Method (SSADM) was developed in the UK in the early 1980s and accepted in 1993 in order to analyze and project the information systems. Use the data flow diagrams (DFD) for describing the informational, functional and event-trigger models, the Logical Data Structure (LDS) diagrams for describing which data the system operates with and Entity Life History (ELH) diagrams for modelling events that happened in the system and find it simple to make any of these or other diagrams with help of our software. Starting now, you’ll definitely make a better chart tomorrow, so why not to do it now, at this very moment? Once you get used to ConceptDraw DIAGRAM , you’ll find our product to be the most smart version of any existing applications and you’ll recommend it to all those who you care for to simplify their work and their lives.

SSADM Diagram

The vector stencils library SSADM from the solution Systems engineering contains specific symbols of SSADM diagrams for ConceptDraw DIAGRAM diagramming and vector drawing software. The Systems engineering solution is contained in Software Development area of ConceptDraw Solution Park.
The example below illustrates the waterfall model used in SSADM. This model involves 5 stages of developing a product such as requirements specification and its' analysis, design, coding and testing.

JSD - Jackson system development

Jackson System Development (JSD) is a linear method of system development created by Michael A. Jackson and John Cameron in the 1980s. It comprises the whole software life cycle directly or providing a framework for more specialized techniques.
When implementing the Jackson System Development method and designing JSD diagrams, you can succesfully use the powerful and helpful tools of ConceptDraw DIAGRAM software extended with Entity-Relationship Diagram (ERD) solution from the Software Development area of ConceptDraw Solution Park.

Flowchart Definition

Flowchart definition - A Flowchart is a graphically representation of the structure of process or system, algorithm or the step-by-step solution of the problem. The Flowchart describes the flow of data through an information processing systems and the parts of the flows. The flow is a set of the logic operations that meet the certain requirements.

What Is a Line Chart

What Is a Line Chart? A line chart is a basic type of chart represented by a series of data points connected with a straight line. Explaining the meaning of “What is a line chart?” is convenient to use illustrations with professional looking line charts designed in ConceptDraw DIAGRAM diagramming and vector drawing software extended with Line Graphs solution from the Graphs and Charts area.

Data Flow Diagram

Data flow diagram (DFD) is the part of the SSADM method (Structured Systems Analysis and Design Methodology), intended for analysis and information systems projection. Data flow diagrams are intended for graphical representation of data flows in the information system and for analysis of data processing during the structural projection. Data flow diagram often used in connection with human process and can be displayed as workflow diagram. The critical Process Flow Diagram is another flowchart technique for designing data flow in connection with organizational processes. The critical Process flow diagram may use different range of symbols than a classic workflow diagram.

Social Media Response DFD Flowcharts - diagramming software ( Mac PC )

Diagramming software for Mac and PC - create flowcharts and presentations for Social Media Organizing.

Data Flow Diagrams

ConceptDraw DIAGRAM software enables you to quickly create data flow diagrams that include data storage, external entities, functional transforms, data flows, and control transforms and signals.

ER Diagram Styles

When creating ER diagrams, you can apply different color ER diagram styles and also notation styles. ConceptDraw DIAGRAM enhanced with Entity-Relationship Diagram (ERD) Solution gives the ability to draw visual and attractive ER Diagrams using the style icons from Crow’s Foot notation and Chen's notation professionally designed and offered by ERD Chen's Notation and ERD Crow’s Foot Notation libraries.

Data Flow Diagram (DFD)

This example is created using ConceptDraw DIAGRAM enhanced with solution Data Flow Diagrams. This diagram shows one of the business processes to simplify and accelerate understanding, analysis, and representation.

IDEF0 Flowchart Symbols

The IDEF0 method is built on the functional modeling language Structured Analysis and Design Technique (SADT) and focuses on activity modeling. The ability to create the IDEF0 flowcharts and business diagrams rapidly and without efforts is made possible thanks to wide range of intuitive tools of ConceptDraw DIAGRAM software and IDFE0 notation supplied by IDEF0 Diagrams solution from the Software Development area. This solution is rich for the ready-to-use specific IDEF0 flowchart symbols grouped in IDEF0 Diagram library.

How to draw a Cross-Functional Flowchart

Is it possible to develop a diagram as quickly as the ideas come to you? The innovative ConceptDraw Arrows10 Technology included in ConceptDraw DIAGRAM is a powerful drawing tool that changes the way diagrams are produced.
While making the drawing process easier and faster.

Sales Process Flowcharts

ConceptDraw DIAGRAM diagramming and vector drawing software extended with Sales Flowcharts solution from the Marketing area of ConceptDraw Solution Park offers the set of extensive tools for quick and easy drawing professional looking Sales Process Flowcharts.

Flowchart Symbols Accounting. Activity-based costing (ABC) flowchart

This flow chart example represent activity-based costing flowchart (ABC flowchart): resource-catagories, resource cost drivers, activities, activity cost drivers, cost objects, direct materials, direct labour. This sort of accounting flowcharts intended to explain how costs distributed between company units and departments. There is only way to clearly explain activity-based cost distribution - create cost diagram demonstrating cost distribution relations and logics. ConceptDraw DIAGRAM is special software with accounting flowchart symbols and flowchart stencils for effective drawing activity-based cost flowcharts (ABC-flowcharts).

Interaction Overview Diagram

UML Interaction Overview Diagram schematically shows a control flow with nodes and a sequence of activities that can contain interaction or sequence diagrams.

Landscape Architecture with ConceptDraw DIAGRAM

As the landscape created using ConceptDraw is not a static document, it can be used not only in the work of landscape architects and engineers, but also by landscape managers who maintain artificial landscapes such as parks and gardens, or natural landscapes like woodlands or nature reserves.
The Landscape and Garden solution contains 14 libraries containing 420 vector graphics shapes, is suitable for any green-fingered gardener wondering how to design a garden.

ConceptDraw Arrows10 Technology

When using a shapes′ center connection the connection becomes dynamic, the connector will trace the contour of the object, when moving the object inside your diagram.

Using any other connection point provides a static connection, when you move connected objects the connector stays attached to the same point.

Credit Card Processing System UML Diagram

Credit Card Processing System UML Diagram. This sample shows the Use Case Diagram of the credit card processing system. You can see how the payment by credit card occurs. This sample can be used by the bank, financial enterprises, for understanding the work of the credit card processing system at the projecting the banking systems.

Data Flow Diagram Software

When studying a business process or system that involves the transfer of data, it is common to use a data flow diagram (DFD) to visualize how that data is processed. While initially used exclusively in regards to the flow of data through a computer system, DFDs are now employed as a business modelling tool, describing business events and interactions, or physical systems involving data storage and transfer.
ConceptDraw DIAGRAM is a powerful Data Flow Diagram Software thanks to the Data Flow Diagrams solution from the Software Development area of ConceptDraw Solution Park.
You can use the predesigned DFD vector objects that are grouped in 3 libraries of Data Flow Diagrams solution: Data Flow Diagrams Library; Gane-Sarson Notation Library; Yourdon and Coad Notation Library.

DFD Library System

Use the Data Flow Diagrams solution from the Software Development area of ConceptDraw Solution Park to draw your own context-level DFDs using the ConceptDraw DIAGRAM diagramming and vector drawing software.
