Identify and describe the key elements and features that apply to each of the sub- systems under review.

Include such details as hardware brand (e.g., IBM, Compaq), processor (80486, Pentium, etc.), operating system (e.g. Windows 7, Mac OS include version numbers), database software (e.g. Access, Paradox, Oracle), network description (LAN, WAN, or both), and network software used (e.g. Novell).

    •   Prepare a Level 0 Logical Data Flow Diagram, decisions (see, for example, chapter 10 of the set text, page 356 or perhaps chapter 12, page 448)

    •   Prepare a Document systems flowchart18 which is consistent with the Level 0 Logical Data Flow Diagram and Narrative (see, for example, chapter 10 of the set text, page 367 or perhaps chapter 12, page 461)
