Not sure if any one document is latest

Latest document doesn’t contain all information

The Problem

Codes & Design docs not in sync

Documents are inherently bulky

Documents sorted alphabetically,confused which to start & which is next

IT Application KnowledgeDomain Knowledge

ConfluentMinds Solution Framework

Knowledge processing cycle

Auto-generate Knowledge

Auto-create knowledge for IT Applications

Auto-create DFD from source code

Maintain KnowledgeStandard off the shelf tools like “Code visual to Flow” creates Data flow Diagram corresponding to start & end line of any routine, in many languages.

Upload Data flow Diagram corresponding to all routines & complete the Logic Tree

Maintain Knowledge

Explore IT Knowledge

Link Logic execution Tree with corresponding User Interface event

Group User Interfaces under a Process cycle aka Functional Layer

Group Functional Layers under an IT System

Auto-create knowledge of Business Processes

Auto-generate Knowledge

Maintain Knowledge

Upload suitable Process diagrams at each node along with brief description

Drill down or up & navigate

Add / View Process Documents

Navigation

Drilldown tree structure with

guided Navigation

Allows to focus on a subset of knowledge only, in detail

You can’t do this in Windows explorer kind of environment.

All the directories appear there always & you need to drill up or down one at a time.

Here you can choose view all or a sub-set with one click

Definitive search feature leading to corresponding DFD directly

Search

Search result points to the corresponding DFD directly

Secured Data access based on role & responsibility

Security

Assign Role to User

Assign a set of IT Systems to a Responsibility

Integrated Approval Workflow for Knowledge units created by employees

Knowledge Approval

Once the logic tree is auto generated & all DFDs are uploaded, send to the System owner for approval

Bugs & Enhancements

Once a bug is found on any functionality, Create & upload Bug related SDLC documents

Change all the affected DFDs which got modified to fix this Bug.The Logic tree always remains up to date..

Knowledge creation cost

Consider an oracle pl/sql package with 500 lines of code having 2 main routines calling 16 routines internally.

Upload the pl/sql file. 2 Logic trees are created, having total 16 nodes corresponding to the internally called routines.

1 minute

Create 16 Dataflow diagrams corresponding to above 16 nodes.

• 15 minute per DFD manually, using Visio, Excel or Power point

• 7 minute per DFD using standard plug-ins viz: visustin, visual code flow generator etc and fine tuning

• Average 10 minute• 160 minutes total
