Real-time Software Design

Data Flow Diagrams (DFD's)

• circle - Process
• arrow - Data flow
• double line - Data Store
• square - Source/Sink

Processes

• work or actions performed on data
• receives input data and produces output
• rule1: can have more than one outgoing data flow or more than one incoming data flow
• rule2: can connect to any other symbol

Data Stores

• represents data that is stored in the system
• processes add or retrieve data from these stores
• only processes are connected to data stores
• name using a noun

Sources/Sinks (external entities)

• External entity that is origin or destination of data
• form the boundaries of the system

Data Flows

• marks movement of data through the system
• connects the processes, external entities and data stores

Different Types of DFDs

• context diagram (Level-0 diagram)
• Level-1 diagram (lower level diagram)
• Level-2 diagram (lower level diagram)

Context Diagram(Level-0 DFD)

• defines the scope of the system by identifying the system boundary
• contain:
• one process
• all sources sinks
• data flows (external)

Lower Level Diagrams

• functional decomposition

State Transition Diagram

• a transition to a different state is caused by the occurrence of an event of by a condition becoming true
• use to show the events which trigger them
• the actions occurring during the transition
