How to Create an Entity-Relationship Diagram

How to Create an Entity-Relationship Diagram
ERD (entity relationship diagram) is used to show the logical structure of databases. It represents the interrelationships between components of a database (entities). Entity relationship diagrams are widely used in software engineering. Using ERD software engineers can control every aspect of database development. ER diagram can be used as the guide for testing and communicating before the release of a software product. ERD displays data as entities that are connected with connections that show the relationships between entities. There are some ERD notations used by databases developers for representing the relationships between the data objects. ConceptDraw DIAGRAM and its ERD solution allow you to build ERD diagram of any notation.

Simple Diagramming

How to Draw ER Diagrams

An Entity Relationship (ER) Diagram is a type of flowchart that illustrates the logical structure of databases, how the different entities, such as people, objects or concepts relate to each other within a given system. How to draw ER Diagrams fast and easy? ConceptDraw DIAGRAM diagramming and vector drawing software enhanced with Entity-Relationship Diagram (ERD) solution from Software Development area of ConceptDraw Solution Park offers you the powerful abilities of designing the ER Diagrams and ERD drawings without efforts. This solution includes a lot of predesigned icons advocated by popular Chen's and Crow’s Foot notations, which can be used when describing an enterprise database and depicting it by abstract way. Simply drag the required objects to ConceptDraw document, connect them in a desired way and make style settings. But the easiest and fastest way of drawing ERDs is to make them on the base of ready-to-use Chen ERD and Crow's Foot ERD templates, which are both represented at ConceptDraw STORE.

Flowchart

The Flowcharts are widespread in various fields and include the multitude of types. They are dedicated to representation the algorithms, processes, workflows of any complexity in a clear and intuitive format. The Flowcharts are commonly used in software development as a visual tool for illustration algorithms and logic of computer programs, in business for illustration business scenarios, in education, and so on. For drawing the Flowchart are used the special object blocks, among them rectangle or box used to represent an activity or step, rounded box or oval to depict Start / End, diamond to represent the decision point (involves the branching yes/no), circle used to represent the point of connection, parallelogram to represent the Input / Output, and some others. With ConceptDraw DIAGRAM including Flowcharts solution it is easy to create professional-looking Flowchart diagrams of any complexity and any degree of detailing. Succeed in drawing the Flowcharts using quick-start templates, predesigned samples and extensive libraries of ready-made flowchart symbols, blocks and icons.

How to Develop Website Wireframes

How to Develop Website Wireframes
Website design is a rather complicated process. The development of a website wireframe is an important step in any screen design process. The first step of this process before coding can start, a web designer creates a website wireframe — a mock-up for what will be displayed on the screen when navigating through the web site pages. A wireframe design always includes three components: Information design, navigation design, and interface design. The configuration of these components depends on the business model of the website. The Website Wireframing tools provided with ConceptDraw Website Wireframe solution helps to define the information hierarchy of website design, making it easier for web-developers to plan the layout according to how a site visitor has to process the information.

How to Design an Interface Mockup for iPhone Application

How to Design an Interface Mockup for iPhone Application
The Apple iPhone user interface has become something of a standard for smartphones, and mobile devices in general. A well-designed user interface (UI) is very important for user-friendly navigation and the best correlation with operating system logic. Development of successful iPhone App UI requires a planning and prototyping stage. An iPhone UI diagram can be employed to give a general view of the device's screen, upon which elements can be placed and re-arranged as necessary. Using ConceptDraw DIAGRAM you can mock-up an iPhone UI system so that you can figure out how best to represent user interface (UI) elements for the development of a new iPhone App.

How to Design a Mockup of Windows 10 User Interface

The launch of Windows 10 with its the tile-based Modern UI design brings a lot of new opportunities for both designers and developers to build new apps. To design an effective user interface, graphic designers will create visual Graphic User Interface (GUI) prototypes, that focus on maximizing the user experience — searching for the most functional layout that attends to core user needs, while retaining an appropriate aesthetic. It is important to know how the user will interact with the UI, and how functionality and appearance will change, depending on the features being used at any one time. The Modern UI design style has its own unique principles and typography that can be managed using ConceptDraw DIAGRAM. The ability to design Windows 10 User Interface is delivered by the Windows 10 User Interface solution for ConceptDraw DIAGRAM.
