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.

Structured Systems Analysis and Design Method (SSADM) with ConceptDraw DIAGRAM

Structured Systems Analysis and Design Method (abbr. SSADM) is a method developed in Great Britain and accepted in 1993 as a national standard for information systems development and analysis. SSADM is based on Data Flow Diagrams and is characterized with presence of clear sequence of steps at projecting, analysis, and documenting of information system. It involves 6 main stages: analysis of existing system or estimation of practicability, requirements definition, determination of technical requirements and equipment cost, development of logical data model, projecting of logical requirements and specification them, physical projecting. Each of them is also divided into several steps defining the tasks that should be fulfilled at a given stage. The most important SSADM elements are flows modeling with help of DFD, data logic modeling with help of LDS (Logical Data Structure) and description of entities behavior. Applying of SSADM is easy with ConceptDraw DIAGRAM diagramming and vector drawing software and Data Flow Diagram solution.

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.

UML Deployment Diagram Example - ATM System UML diagrams

The UML Deployment Diagram is used for visualization of elements and components of a program, that exist at the stage of its execution. It contains graphical representations of processors, devices, processes, and relationships between them. The UML Deployment Diagram allows to determine the distribution of system components on its physical nodes, to show the physical connections between all system nodes at the stage of realization, to identify the system bottlenecks and reconfigure its topology to achieve the required performance. The UML Deployment diagram is typically developed jointly by systems analysts, network engineers and system engineers. ConceptDraw DIAGRAM diagramming and vector drawing software with Rapid UML solution from Software Development area of ConceptDraw Solution Park perfectly suits for designing different types of UML diagrams, including the UML Deployment Diagrams. There are included a lot of design elements, templates, examples and samples, among them an example of work of ATM (Automated Teller Machine) banking system.

Object-Oriented Development (OOD) Method

This sample shows the Booch OOD diagram of the environment. The Booch method (developed by Grady Booch) is an object modeling language and methodology used in software engineering. This sample was created in ConceptDraw DIAGRAM diagramming and vector drawing software using the Rapid UML Solution from the Software Development area of ConceptDraw Solution Park.

UML Use Case Diagram Example. Services UML Diagram. ATM system

Services UML Diagram. ATM system. This sample was created in ConceptDraw DIAGRAM diagramming and vector drawing software using the UML Use Case Diagram library of the Rapid UML Solution from the Software Development area of ConceptDraw Solution Park. This sample shows the scheme of the servicing using the ATMs (Automated Teller Machines) and is used at the working of ATM banking systems, at the performing of the banking transactions.

Software Diagram Examples and Templates

ConceptDraw Pro is a powerful tool for business and technical diagramming. Software Development area of ConceptDraw Solution Park provides 5 solutions: Data Flow Diagrams, Entity-Relationship Diagram (ERD), Graphic User Interface, IDEFO Diagrams, Rapid UML.

UML Class Diagram Example for GoodsTransportation System

Class Diagram for Goods Transport System in UML. This sample was created in ConceptDraw DIAGRAM diagramming and vector drawing software using the UML Class Diagram library of the Rapid UML Solution from the Software Development area of ConceptDraw Solution Park. This sample shows the concept of working of the transport company and is used by transport companies, carriers at the transportation of various goods.

UML Diagram Types List

Two types of diagrams are used in UML: Structure Diagrams and Behavior Diagrams. Behavior Diagrams represent the processes proceeding in a modeled environment. Structure Diagrams represent the elements that compose the system.
