2. System and subsystem boundaries and environments have an impact on information system
v v v v v v v v v v v

v v v v v v v v v v v v v




access to information.

8. A context-level data flow diagram is an important tool for showing data used and information produced
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v




by a system. It provides an overview of the setting or environment the system exists within—which
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v




entities supply and receive data/information.
v v v v v




v

, 9. The context-level data flow diagram is one way to show scope, or what is to be included in the system.
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v




The project has a budget that helps to define scope.
