DATA FLOW DIAGRAM NOTATIONS

DFD

A data flow diagram illustrates the processes, data stores, and external entities in a business or other system and the connecting data flows

EXAMPLE

C.A.S.E.

• CASE is an acronym that stands for

Computer-Aided Software Engineering

• In simple layman terms, CASE is a tool which aids a software engineer to maintain and develop software.

WHY CASE TOOLS Architecture management: Model, design, and rapidly build SOFTWARE, systems, and computer applications programs

Change and release management: Improve software delivery and lifecycle traceability, from requirements through deployment

Software development management: Align projects for improved productivity and predictability

Quality management: Ensure software functionality, reliability, and performance throughout development and production

PURPOSE OF CASE TOOLS SOFTWARE Many CASEtools not only output code but also generate other output typical of various systems analysis and design methodologies
