analysis and
IIll design. IIll I I l l




3. Systems are described as either open, with free flowing information, or closed with
IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll



restricted access to information.

8. A context-level data flow diagram is an important tool for showing data used and information
IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll I Il l IIll IIll



produced by a
IIll system. It provides an overview of the setting or environment the system exists
IIll IIll I I l l IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll



within—which entities supply and receive data/information.

IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll I I ll Ill IIll



system. The project has a budget that helps to define scope.
