The main goal of the course is to study and put into practice languages, methodologies, and techniques for the conceptual modeling of data and processes, towards the realization of correct, effective information systems for organizational support. In this light, the course aims at providing professional skills and knowledge.
The module data and process modeling focuses on conceptual modeling languages and consists of two main parts.
- Data modeling, with emphasis on fact-oriented approaches so as to capture relevant facts, entities, relations, and constraints by starting from facts of interest.
- Process modeling, so as to tackle the (business) processes that regulate the way organizations regulate their internal work and discipline the interaction with external stakeholders, towards the achievement of their strategic objectives.
