A summary

Publisher Summary This chapter presents a summary of the whole concept of the data analysis. Data analysis can be analysed and modeled using analysis techniques such as a meta-model. Data dictionaries attempt to provide a design solution for the meta-model—they are the implemented solutions to the requirements. Any entity model of the project life-cycle which is produced will be dependent on the concepts and techniques used. In fact, the model is a part of a much larger model which covers all of the analysis, design, construction, implementation, and production tasks. The chapter discusses a detailed description of data analysis model. It can be seen that every concept and deliverable is describable using an entity model that could, in turn, be used to produce a designed system—an advanced data dictionary or system engine. This summary completes the description of the facts that have to be collected during entity or data analysis.
