Abstract
A microprocessor manipulated program which extracts the data inherent in the cognitive process leading to the spoken or written word and converts that data into business models capable of defining the interrelationship and functions of a business. The program models the business and the data thus generated is used to produce application software program code capable of controlling and/or performing all functions of the business. The system springs from The Connected Development Process of Four Dimensional Cognitive Modeling using the four basic linguistic entities of PROCESS and its attendant adjuncts of DATA, CONTROL and SUPPORT.
