Process/Workflow Analysis
• Is an excellent tool for identifying and analyzing problems and issues within a program.
• Involves identifying key elements within a program and looking at their interrelationships through a model.
Model
– A model is simply a picture of reality. – Models should neither be to simple nor complex• Too simple: does not represent reality• Too complex: loose your audience
– The primary model used for program analysis is an input/output model
– Key elements include: inputs, process, outputs and environmental forces.
