Your task is to do a Real-Time Structured Analysis for the RMT considering the aforementioned steps
and the Special Remark. You are to present your analysis including the following information:
1. An External Entity-Relationship Diagram (ERD) indicating relationships of the RMT and the
other external entities in the system.
2. Data and Control Flow Diagrams (DFD/CFDs) – to sufficient detail that only a single task is
carried out by each process at the lowest level. You should show the control events that occur
on the same diagrams. Use the real-time extensions for control flows etc. shown in the lecture
notes. You need to determine when and where events will occur. For example, whenever a
piece of data becomes available it may need a control event to let the system know that it is
available. These events must be clearly shown in these DFD/CFD diagrams and then handled in
the Control Specification (CSPEC).
3. Control Specifications (Cspec) – use combinational or sequential FSMs as required,
presented in an appropriate format. The idea is that the Cspec will completely describe how
each and every event or control flow is handled in the system. Note you need to provide both
“Process Activation Table” and “State Machine Diagram”.
4. A Data Dictionary is required to adequately describe each name or special term used in the
analysis, which includes process names, data flow names, control flow names etc. If you think
further information is required make reasonable assumptions and clearly state these in the
submission.
