About this title

Synopsis

A comprehensive explanatory text, heavily illustrated, that explains the designs and applications of Structured Analysis and Design Technique (SADT). SADT is a diagrammatic method designed to help people describe and understand systems of every kind. It offers visual building blocks to represent both entities and activities, and a variety of arrows to relate those building blocks (boxes). These boxes and arrows have an associated informal semantics, which is described with examples. SADT can be used as a functional analysis tool of a given process, using successive levels of detail. The SADT method not only allows one to define user needs for computer programming and IT developments, but also to explain and present an activity’s manufacturing processes and procedures. The SADT supplies a functional view of any enterprise by describing the functions and their relationships in a company. These functions fulfill the objectives of a company, such as sales, order planning, product design, part manufacturing, and human resource management. The SADT can depict simple functional relationships here and can reflect data and control flow relationships between different functions. An extraordinary useful tool for project planners and managers in every business, large or small.
