November 2019 Chapter Meeting

Does your team ever have trouble defining the boundaries of your system?  Is it difficult for your team to clarify what is in scope and out of scope for your current effort? A context diagram can help you. Join the Pittsburgh IIBA chapter meeting to learn how to build one. Come prepared with your current problem and we'll build a diagram in the session.

Presentation Objectives: To introduce the concept of the Context Level Data Flow Diagram and explain how we move from Scoping a project to Defining Requirements
