A flowchart is a schematic
representation of an algorithm or a
process.

Many software packages

exist that can create
flowcharts automatically

DFD
A data flow diagram illustrates the
processes, data stores, and external
entities in a business or other system
and the connecting data flows
EXAMPLE
C.A.S.E.

• CASE is an acronym that stands for

Computer-Aided Software
Engineering
• In simple layman terms, CASE is a tool
which aids a software engineer to maintain
and develop software.
WHY CASE TOOLS
Architecture management:
Model, design, and rapidly build SOFTWARE, systems, and
computer applications programs
Change and release management:
Improve software delivery and lifecycle traceability, from
requirements through deployment
Software development management:
Align projects for improved productivity and predictability
Quality management:
Ensure software functionality, reliability, and performance
throughout development and production
PURPOSE OF CASE TOOLS
SOFTWARE
Many CASEtools not only output
code but also generate other output
typical of various systems analysis
and design methodologies
