Abstract

See full text

A computer-based apparatus and method for gathering Information for data model and Process model development includes a plurality of terminals on a local area network at which multiple users enter Information in a structured manner in response to an ordered sequence of screens displayed for a given project; a centralized database for receiving the Information from the multiple users; and a bridge program for transforming the group-entered Information stored in the database into a format that a computer-based information engineering tool can create into a model. An analyst workstation is included to enable only an analyst to edit gathered Information in response to comments from users and provide certain consensus inputs.
