    The document discusses client-server computing and documenting systems and processes. It defines client-server computing as a system with two networked computers, a client and a server, that work together to accomplish application processing. It also discusses different ways to document processes and systems pictorially, including process maps, system flowcharts, and data flow diagrams. Process maps in particular are described as a graphical way to represent a business process by showing the actual flow and sequence of events.

    Client–Server Computing
    Computing

    Two types of computers are networked together


    to accomplish the application processing. A ‘client’
    and a ‘server’.
    Characteristics:
    1.Client and server computer are networked together.
    2.System appears to users to be one integrated whole.
    3.Individual parts of processing are shared between server
    and client.
    4.Client computer participates in processing or data
    manipulation in some meaningful way.

    manipulates data for presentation, but does not do any
    other significant processing, it is called

    a. Distributed presentation.
    b. Distributed application.

    of a business process

    Rules for Reading Process Maps

    1. The functional areas appear down the left-hand side of the diagram

    2. The functional areas are separated with a solid line

    3. The subfunctions are separated with a dashed line

    4. Two standard symbols are used: a rectangle for a process and a


    diamond for a decision

    5. Lines that connect processes are labelled with documents

    6. Process rectangles describe processes not documents

    7. The process map reads left to right and top to bottom
