No matter how complex your data is, it is always important to represent it in a much better way than text – in a way of a chart, such as a pie chart. Using the mentioned representation of the given data is a very good way of illustrating whatever needs to be shown as it becomes much more obvious and simple to understand seeing the information structured in a way of such drawing.
The pie chart is one of the most widely used types of chart having its sectors representing different elements of information in the different proportions, placed in different angles. The mentioned type of chart is very useful for illustrating any needed kind of data, which can be divided into the groups, different categories. The way this data can be represented with the help of ConceptDraw DIAGRAM diagramming and drawing software is very convenient. It becomes obvious to tell whether one sector looks smaller than another in a way of only looking at the freshly created pie chart and so on its sectors.
To be short, pie charts look like disks, each divided by different sectors illustrating different groups of data. Each of the sectors is known to be displaying its own numerical proportion, situated by an angle, simply proportional to the total quantity — 100%. The name of this type of chart comes from its resemblance to a sliced pie. Using pie chart you can always effectively display any needed proportions of its constituents within a very short period of time as long as you use ConceptDraw DIAGRAM diagramming and drawing software.
Allowing all the ConceptDraw DIAGRAM users to emphasize the value of each part of the whole amount of data illustrated on this chart, pie charts are one of the most commonly used types of diagrams, which drawing can be completed within only a couple of minutes in case you have the Pie Charts solution downloaded to your computer from another product of CS Odessa — ConceptDraw STORE application.

Any business process consists from a number of tasks carrying out the certain business goal. It is useful to diagram business processes to ensure that they are as foolproof, logical and sequential as possible. This business process diagram describes a typical booking process flow by the example of a cab booking process. It can be used as a roadmap for any booking system implementation. Diagramming a business process allows you to look at the entire project and take into account all types of possible scenarios. Business process diagram helps you investigate and clarify the process thoroughly so that you can find out how it can be improved. Business process diagram supports team communications by ensuring that each process element is clear and everyone in the team is on the same page.
Sometimes your company brings you less profit than you expect it to be, and it’s difficult to reveal the causes. Maybe it’s time to learn new technologies, because business diagram are easily developed by means of special software, so you won’t make any extra effort. In return, you will increase your productivity and get more done in a less time.

A Venn diagram, sometimes referred to as a set diagram, is a diagramming style used to show all the possible logical relations between a finite amount of sets. In mathematical terms, a set is a collection of distinct objects gathered together into a group, which can then itself be termed as a single object. Venn diagrams represent these objects on a page as circles or ellipses, and their placement in relation to each other describes the relationships between them.
The Venn diagram example below visualizes the the class of language inclusions described by the Chomsky hierarchy.

When thinking about data visualization, one of the first tools that comes to mind is a flowchart design. You can find flowchart symbols, shapes, stencils and icons easily on the Internet, but it might take time to systematize this information. Nevertheless, once you start flowcharting, you’ll love its simplicity and efficiency.
This diagram consists from standard flowchart symbols, approved by ANSI (American National Standard Institute) for drawing flowcharts. A flowchart is a diagram that represents a step-by-step algorithm of any process, displaying the process stages as boxes that are connected with arrows. Flowchart design makes it clear and readable.
Flowchart designed using ConceptDraw DIAGRAM flowchart software allows to make attractive and clear process presentation, it makes interpretation of the business process flow fresh and versatile. Great flowchart design view is a big advantage over the diagram created manually on a paper.

There are many tools to manage a process or to illustrate an algorithm or a workflow. Flowcharting is one of those tools. However, it may be difficult to show complex processes that require multiple attributes or several people in a simple flowchart, so a cross-functional flowchart would be a solution for that situation. To create such flowchart, group processes and steps to labeled rows or columns, and divide those groups with horizontal or vertical parallel lines. It is worth mentioning that there are different types of cross-functional flowcharts, like opportunity or deployment flowchart.
This diagram shows a cross-functional flowchart that was made for a trading process. It contains 14 processes, distributed through 5 lines depicting the participants who interact with the process. Also there are connectors that show the data flow of information between processes. The cross-functional flowchart displays a detailed model of the trading process, as well as all participants in the process and how they interact with each other. The lines in the flowchart indicates the position, department and role of the trading process participants.

Many professionals have to solve problems every day. Designing of the process algorithm contribute to understand where the problem is in the process. A Flowchart is a graphical tool that most usable for breaking down processes.
Definition of flowchart - a diagram that shows step-by-step progression through a procedure or system especially using connecting lines and a set of conventional symbols.
All the icons, symbols and connectors needed for creating standardized notation flowcharts are contained within Software Flow Chart.

While developing software, it is very important to have a visual model, because it helps to represent the logic and the architecture of an application. Experienced engineers use UML diagrams to denote relationships between classes and their instances. UML is a general language for a set of diagrams like deployment diagrams, object diagrams or use case diagrams.
This diagram represents UML class diagram used for a software system development using an object-oriented method. Class diagrams are categorized as static structure diagrams that depict the physical structure of a system. Class diagram divides a software system's structure into "classes". Classes are defined by the methods and variables of objects. UML Class diagram is used to depict relationships and source code dependencies between objects.
