    HTML 4.01 Specification since PDF 1.5; HTML 2.0 since 1.2 Forms Data Format (FDF) based on PDF, uses the same syntax and has essentially the same file structure, but is much simpler than PDF since the body of an FDF document consists of only one required object. Forms Data Format is defined in the PDF specification (since PDF 1.2).

  3. Design structure matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Design_structure_matrix

    A sample DSM with 7 elements and 11 dependency marks. The design structure matrix (DSM; also referred to as dependency structure matrix, dependency structure method, dependency source matrix, problem solving matrix (PSM), incidence matrix, N 2 matrix, interaction matrix, dependency map or design precedence matrix) is a simple, compact and visual representation of a system or project in the ...

  4. Data structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_structure

    A data structure known as a hash table.. In computer science, a data structure is a data organization and storage format that is usually chosen for efficient access to data. [1] [2] [3] More precisely, a data structure is a collection of data values, the relationships among them, and the functions or operations that can be applied to the data, [4] i.e., it is an algebraic structure about data.

  5. Unified Modeling Language - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unified_Modeling_Language

    The unified modeling language (UML) is a general-purpose visual modeling language that is intended to provide a standard way to visualize the design of a system. [1] UML provides a standard notation for many types of diagrams which can be roughly divided into three main groups: behavior diagrams, interaction diagrams, and structure diagrams.

  6. Jackson structured programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jackson_Structured_Programming

    Jackson structured programming ( JSP) is a method for structured programming developed by British software consultant Michael A. Jackson and described in his 1975 book Principles of Program Design. [ 1] The technique of JSP is to analyze the data structures of the files that a program must read as input and produce as output, and then produce a ...

  7. Software design pattern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_design_pattern

    Software design pattern. In software engineering, a design pattern describes a relatively small, well-defined aspect (i.e. functionality) of a computer program in terms of how to write the code. Using a pattern is intended to leverage an existing concept rather than re-inventing it. This can decrease the time to develop software and increase ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_analysis

    Data analysis is the process of inspecting, cleansing, transforming, and modeling data with the goal of discovering useful information, informing conclusions, and supporting decision-making. [1] Data analysis has multiple facets and approaches, encompassing diverse techniques under a variety of names, and is used in different business, science ...

  9. Entity–relationship model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entity–relationship_model

    Consequently, the ER model becomes an abstract data model, [1] that defines a data or information structure that can be implemented in a database, typically a relational database. Entity–relationship modeling was developed for database and design by Peter Chen and published in a 1976 paper, [2] with variants of the idea existing previously. [3]
