2. Flowchart - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flowchart

   A flowchart is a type of diagram that represents a workflow or process. A flowchart can also be defined as a diagrammatic representation of an algorithm, a step-by-step approach to solving a task. The flowchart shows the steps as boxes of various kinds, and their order by connecting the boxes with arrows.

3. Process flow diagram - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Process_flow_diagram

   Process flow diagram. A process flow diagram ( PFD) is a diagram commonly used in chemical and process engineering to indicate the general flow of plant processes and equipment. The PFD displays the relationship between major equipment of a plant facility and does not show minor details such as piping details and designations.

4. Functional flow block diagram - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Functional_flow_block_diagram

   A functional flow block diagram ( FFBD) is a multi-tier, time-sequenced, step-by-step flow diagram of a system 's functional flow. [2] The term "functional" in this context is different from its use in functional programming or in mathematics, where pairing "functional" with "flow" would be ambiguous. Here, "functional flow" pertains to the ...

5. Flow process chart - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_process_chart

   The first structured method for documenting process flow, e.g., in flow shop scheduling, the flow process chart, was introduced by Frank and Lillian Gilbreth to members of ASME in 1921 as the presentation "Process Charts, First Steps in Finding the One Best Way to Do Work". [2] The Gilbreths' tools quickly found their way into industrial ...

6. Piping and instrumentation diagram - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piping_and_instrumentation...

   A piping and instrumentation diagram (P&ID) is defined as follows: A diagram which shows the interconnection of process equipment and the instrumentation used to control the process. In the process industry, a standard set of symbols is used to prepare drawings of processes. The instrument symbols used in these drawings are generally based on ...

7. Data-flow diagram - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data-flow_diagram

   The data-flow diagram is a tool that is part of structured analysis and data modeling. When using UML, the activity diagram typically takes over the role of the data-flow diagram. A special form of data-flow plan is a site-oriented data-flow plan. Data-flow diagrams can be regarded as inverted Petri nets, because places in such networks ...

8. Activity diagram - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Activity_diagram

   Activity diagrams can be regarded as a form of a structured flowchart combined with a traditional data flow diagram. Typical flowchart techniques lack constructs for expressing concurrency. [5] However, the join and split symbols in activity diagrams only resolve this for simple cases.

9. Business process mapping - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Business_process_mapping

   Flowchart is a primary type of business process mapping. It consists of some symbols such as arrows, circles, diamonds, boxes, ovals, or rectangles. The type of Flowchart just described is sometimes referred to as a "detailed" flowchart because it includes in detail, the inputs, activities, decision points, and outputs of any process.
