Abstract

Data Flow Diagram (DFD) is a diagram used to graphically depict the flow of data in a business information system. They are used to indicate the scope and boundaries of the system as a whole and to communicate between a systems analyst and everyone involved in the system. DFDs are built using standard symbols and notation to describe various entities and their relationships. They are easy to understand for both technical and non-technical people, making them a useful tool for system documentation. A DFD consists of four main components: data input, data output, data storage, and processes that move data between them. In this case, a case study of the use of DFD for multimedia laboratory management information systems at Universitas Negeri Medan.
