  2. Sequence diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sequence_diagram

    The diagram emphasizes events that cross the system boundary from actors to systems. A system sequence diagram should be done for the main success scenario of the use case, and frequent or complex alternative scenarios. There are two kinds of sequence diagrams: Sequence Diagram (SD): A regular version of sequence diagram describes how the ...

    Homininaeid Era – Period prior to the existence of Homininae Homininid Era – Period prior to the existence of Hominini Prehistory – Period between the appearance of Homo ("humans"; first stone tools c. three million years ago) and the invention of writing systems (for the Ancient Near East : c. five thousand years ago).

  4. Geoffrey Gordon (computer scientist) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geoffrey_Gordon_(computer...

    In 1959, he started work on a project to digitally simulate what was seen across flow-chart style simulation sequence diagrams, instead of writing new software for each one. These diagrams used nodes to communicate the flow and operations of a simulation. The project, called the "Sequence Diagram Simulator" was completed at the end of that year ...

  5. Message sequence chart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Message_Sequence_Chart

    In a Sequence Diagram, a vertical line is usually an object. The object can be active (in its own thread of execution) or passive (in the execution context of an active object). Arrows; In an MSC an arrow is usually an asynchronous message sent from one entity to another one. Once the message is sent the sending entity resumes its execution.

  6. Interaction overview diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interaction_overview_diagram

    The interaction overview diagram is similar to the activity diagram, in that both visualize a sequence of activities. The difference is that, for an interaction overview, each individual activity is pictured as a frame which can contain a nested interaction diagram. This makes the interaction overview diagram useful to "deconstruct a complex ...

  7. Activity cycle diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Activity_cycle_diagram

    The ACD is a modeling tool that was developed in 1960 following the flow diagram method of K.D. Tocher. [2] It pertains to the activity-based paradigm of system modeling, as opposed to process-oriented or event-based paradigms.

  8. Warnier/Orr diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warnier/Orr_diagram

    A Warnier/Orr diagram (also known as a logical construction of a program/system) is a kind of hierarchical flowchart that allows the description of the organization of data and procedures. They were initially developed 1976, [ 1 ] in France by Jean-Dominique Warnier [ 2 ] and in the United States by Kenneth Orr [ 3 ] on the foundation of ...

  9. Sequence analysis in social sciences - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sequence_analysis_in...

    In social sciences, sequence analysis (SA) is concerned with the analysis of sets of categorical sequences that typically describe longitudinal data. Analyzed sequences are encoded representations of, for example, individual life trajectories such as family formation, school to work transitions, working careers, but they may also describe daily ...
