Architectural Mapping Using Data Flow

This document outlines the steps to transform data flow diagrams into a software architecture using architectural mapping. The steps include reviewing the system model and data flow diagrams, determining if the diagrams have transform or transaction flows, isolating the transform center by specifying incoming and outgoing boundaries, performing first and second-level factoring, and refining the architecture using design heuristics.

Architectural mapping using Data flow

Structured design

Transform mapping
To map these data flow diagrams into a software architecture,you would initiate the following
design steps:

1.Review the fundamental system model.

2. Review and refine data flow diagrams for the software.


3.Determine whether the DFD has transform or transaction flow.

4. Isolate the transform center by specifying incoming and outgoing flow boundaries.

5. Perform “first-level factoring”.


6. Perform “second-level factoring”.
7. Refine the first-iteration architecture using design heuristics for improved software quality.
