Wiring diagrams
The main way to communicate a design to others is with a schematic or wiring diagram. Diagrams can be as detailed or as simple as needed; all that matters is that enough information is given to relay the necessary information regarding the internal workings of the systems. This book is going to represent systems as block diagrams, in other words, as high-level diagrams. For example, wires and dataflows can be represented with simple lines and components, and software services can be represented as shapes, such as squares. To fully demonstrate wiring diagrams, let’s work on the final project.
