Entity Relationship Diagram Examples

Creation of Entity-Relationship (ER) model is a visual representation the structure of a business database, where data equates to entities or objects, which are linked by defined relationships expressing dependencies and requirements. By the nature, the ER model is an abstract visualization, a first step in design process towards creating a logical and functional database. ConceptDraw PRO professional software gives the ability to effectively describe a database using the Entity-Relationship model. Included to ConceptDraw Solution Park, the Entity-Relationship Diagram (ERD) solution contains the set of predesigned vector icons advocated by Chen's and Crow’s Foot notations that both can be used for data modeling and describing a database. Entity-Relationship Diagram (ERD) solution includes also helpful templates and incredibly large collection of varied Entity Relationship Diagram examples and samples offered at ConceptDraw STORE. Each of them can be used to develop your own model of a database of arbitrary complexity.

Jacobson Use Cases Diagram

The vector stencils library UML Use Case contains specific symbols of the UML notation such as actors, actions, associations and relationships for the ConceptDraw PRO diagramming and vector drawing software. This library is contained in the Rapid UML solution from Software Development area of ConceptDraw Solution Park.

UML Class Diagram Notation

When it comes to system construction, a class diagram is the most widely used diagram. UML Class Diagrams is a type of static structure diagram that is used for general conceptual modeling of the systematics of the application. Such a diagram would illustrate the object-oriented view of a system . The object orientation of a system is indicated by a class diagram. It describes the structure of a system by showing the general issues,classes of a system, attributes, operations, interfaces, inheritance, and the relationships between them.

Express-G Diagram

The vector stencils library from the solution Information Model Diagrams contains specific data type symbols of the EXPRESS-G notation such as entity data type symbols, simple data type symbols, enumeration data type symbols, defined data type symbols, select data type symbols and specific attribute symbols for ConceptDraw PRO diagramming and vector drawing software. The Information Model Diagrams solution is contained in the Software Development area of ConceptDraw Solution Park.

Product Overview

software engineering, data model, data modeling tools, orm
Object-role Modeling (ORM) Diagram solution with powerful vector diagramming and data modeling tools, large quantity of specially developed samples and examples, and rich variety of vector objects corresponding to common ORM notation, ideally suits for developing the comprehensive, clear and visual Object-role Modeling (ORM) diagrams and schematics, understandable for all interested people from the different fields and business directions, for designing the ORM models, and demonstrating advantages from the use of ORM and its notation. It is intended for software developers and computer engineers, specialists in a field of Object-oriented programming (OOP), database architects, web-application constructors and developers, etc.

ORM

In case some ORM drawing has to be created, such as an ORM diagram, it can become possible once the ConceptDraw PRO diagramming and drawing software is downloaded from this site being used with another product of CSO — the ConceptDraw STORE. Having the last-mentioned application, you can choose to install the Object-Role Modeling (ORM) solution in order to make any needed ORM diagram by using the pre-made templates of such drawings as well as the vector stencil libraries from the mentioned solution.

Types of Flowcharts

A Flowchart is a graphical representation of process, algorithm, workflow or step-by-step solution of the problem. It shows the steps as boxes of various kinds and connects them by arrows in a defined order depicting a flow. There are twelve main Flowchart types: Basic Flowchart, Business Process Modeling Diagram (BPMN), Cross Functional Flowchart, Data Flow Diagram (DFD), IDEF (Integrated DEFinition) Flowchart, Event-driven Process Chain (EPC) Diagram, Influence Diagram (ID), Swimlane Flowchart, Process Flow Diagram (PFD), Specification and Description Language (SDL) Diagram, Value Stream Mapping, Workflow Diagram. Using the Flowcharts solution from the Diagrams area of ConceptDraw Solution Park you can easy and quickly design a Flowchart of any of these types. This solution offers a lot of special predesigned vector symbols for each of these widely used notations. They will make the drawing process of Flowcharts much easier than ever. Pay also attention for the included collection of ready Flowchart examples, samples and quick-start templates. This is business process improvement tools. If you are looking for MS Visio for your Mac, then you are out of luck, because it hasn't been released yet. However, you can use Visio alternatives that can successfully replace its functions. ConceptDraw PRO is an alternative to MS Visio for Mac that provides powerful features and intuitive user interface for the same.
