Syntax OF the Information model
Graphical representation of information models
A pleasant, easy-to-read graphical representation of information models is crucial for acceptance by a wider audience.
The syntax description describes all types of statements that can be read from a diagram. All statements that we can read from the diagram are relevant to our world of action.
A diagram that is easy to read and understand for everyone:
- contains only symbols whose meaning is described in the syntax description
- does not contain any special technical terms
- contains only colloquial terms
- is clearly laid out
- is pleasant to look at
Syntax diagram is currently only available in german
