1.

A process model is:

A.

The output of the interviewing process

B.

The work plan

C.

The model that is produced by extreme prototyping

D.

The expanded and thoroughly balanced use case for a system

E.

A formal way of representing how a business system operates

Ans: e

2.

Logical process models are:

A.

Models that describe processes without suggesting how they are conducted

B.

Coded logic models

C.

Models based upon implementing the if-then-else programming structure

D.

Developed by the infrastructure analyst

E.

Created in the system walkthough

Ans: a

3.

The relation between use cases and data flow diagrams is generally:

A.

Use cases are developed by users and data flow diagrams are developed by systems analysts

B.

Data flow diagrams are developed first and then use cases ensue

C.

Use cases are developed first and then data flow diagrams ensue

D.

Use cases show logical processes, while data flow diagrams show physical processes

E.

There is not a relationship between use cases and data flow diagrams

Ans: c

4.

Brianna has a process has two inputs but only one output.

A.

This is an error as there needs to be the same amount of inputs as outputs

Ans: d

B.

This is an error as process do not have inputs or outputs

C.

This is normal as all processes have two inputs and one output

D.

This is normal as all processes need at least one input and at least one output

E.

This is an error as processes only produce output

5.

The relationship between use cases and data flow diagrams is:

A.

Use cases tend to be developed with users to make sure the analyst has fully captured the processes and relationships; DFD's are built upon the use cases to more fully formally understand the processes involved

B.

Both are tools in a systems analysts toolbox, although they do unrelated things

C.

Use cases are developed by users exclusively; while DFD's are developed by analysts exclusively

D.

Use cases come out of JAD sessions and clarify what was discussed by users in those sessions; DFD's come out of analysts' interviews.

E.

They are the same thing – use cases are process models using the DeMarco and

Yourdon notation; and DFD's are process models using the Gane and Sarson notation.

Ans: a

6.

Process models are only used to document the current system (that is, the “as-is” system), since that is the system the users know and is the system that will be modified.

A.

True

B.

False

Ans: b

7.

Data Flow diagramming is a tool for doing process modeling.

A.

True

B.

False

Ans: a

8.

Data flow diagrams (as the name implies) focus on the physical data in a system.

A.

True

B.

False

Ans: b

9.

According to the authors “Process modeling – and the creating of PMPs in particular – is one of the most important skills needed by systems analysts”.

A.

True

B.

False

Ans: b

10.

The major inputs and major outputs listed on the use case provide a list of the sources and destinations of the inflows and outflows on the processes on a DFD.

A.

True

B.

False

Ans: a
