Entity Relationship Diagram Software Engineering

Entity Relationship Diagram (aka ERD, ER Diagram, E-R Diagram) is a well-tried software engineering tool for data modeling, system design and illustrating the logical structure of databases.
Professional ERD drawing is an essential software engineering method for database modeling. ConceptDraw DIAGRAM as a powerful Entity Relationship Diagram Software Engineering offers the tools of Entity-Relationship Diagram (ERD) solution from Software Development area of ConceptDraw Solution Park.

Building Drawing Software for Design Sport Fields

ConceptDraw DIAGRAM diagramming and vector drawing software enhanced with Building Plans Area allows you to draw your own plans as well as diagrams, flowcharts and many other schemes for your work.

Yourdon and Coad Diagram

The vector stencils library Yourdon and Coad Notation from the solution OOAD contains specific symbols of the Yourdon and Coad notation such as data store symbol, data process symbol, loop symbol for ConceptDraw DIAGRAM diagramming and vector drawing software. The OOAD solution is contained in the Software Development area of ConceptDraw Solution Park.

Entity Relationship Diagram Examples

Create an Entity-Relationship (ER) model is to visually represent the structure of a business database, where data equates to entities (or objects) that are linked by defined relationships expressing dependencies and requirements. By nature it is an abstract visualization, the first step in the design process towards creating a logical and functional database.

ConceptDraw DIAGRAM diagramming and vector drawing software gives the ability to describe a database using the Entity-Relationship model. Entity-Relationship Diagram(ERD) solution from the Software Development area supplies the ConceptDraw DIAGRAM with icons advocated by Chen's and Crow’s Foot notation that can be used when describing a database.

ERD Symbols and Meanings

Crow's foot notation is used in Barker's Notation, Structured Systems Analysis and Design Method (SSADM) and information engineering. Crow's foot diagrams represent entities as boxes, and relationships as lines between the boxes. Different shapes at the ends of these lines represent the cardinality of the relationship.
The Chen's ERD notation is still used and is considered to present a more detailed way of representing entities and relationships.
To create an ERD, software engineers mainly turn to dedicated drawing software, which contain the full notation resources for their specific database design - ERD symbols and meanings. CS Odessa has released an all-inclusive Entity-Relationship Diagram (ERD) solution for their powerful drawing program, ConceptDraw DIAGRAM.

Data Flow Diagram Symbols. DFD Library

Data Flow Diagrams show information transfers and process steps of a system. The general concept is an approach of a depicting how occurs input in a system, further processes and what runs out. The aim of DFD is in accomplishing of understanding between developers and users. Data flow diagrams are maintained with other methods of structured systems analysis.

CAD Drawing Software for Making Mechanic Diagram and Electrical Diagram Architectural Designs

CAD (Computer-aided design) software is used for improvement the quality of design and the productivity of the designer, for creating the database for manufacturing. Computer-aided design is used in many fields: in mechanical and industrial design, in designing electronic systems and electrical diagrams for architectural design, in automotive, aerospace, shipbuilding industries.

Entity Relationship Diagram - ERD - Software for Design Chen ER Diagrams

The Entity-Relationship Diagram (ERD) solution from ConceptDraw Solution Park extends ConceptDraw DIAGRAM vector graphics and diagramming software with the ability to describe a database using the Entity-Relationship (Chen) model. Use it for design your ERDs and verify that ConceptDraw DIAGRAM offers the best ERD diagrams software tools for design element Chen notation.

Looking at ConceptDraw MINDMAP as a Replacement for Mindjet Mindmanager

ConceptDraw MindMap benefits comparing to Mindjet Mindmanager:
Economical. (Lower license price, support is no charge maintenance is an optional one-time fee that delivers to you the next major release) ConceptDraw products are structured to save you money from the date of purchase for the life of the product. When you compare ConceptDraw MINDMAP to Mindjet Mindmanager the cost savings will be obvious.
Flexible Licensing. ConceptDraw is licensed per-named-user. Want ConceptDraw on 2 PCs, 2 Macs, or a PC and a Mac? Straightforward licensing makes this easy.

Physics Symbols
