Overview On IDEF Methods
Eventually the IDEF methods have been defined up to IDEF14:
- IDEF0 : Function modeling
- IDEF1 : Information Modeling
- IDEF1X : Data Modeling
- IDEF2 : Simulation Model Design
- IDEF3 : Process Description Capture
- IDEF4 : Object-Oriented Design
- IDEF5 : Ontology Description Capture
- IDEF6 : Design Rationale Capture
- IDEF7 : Information System Auditing
- IDEF8 : User Interface Modeling
- IDEF9 : Business Constraint Discovery
- IDEF10 : Implementation Architecture Modeling
- IDEF11 : Information Artifact Modeling
- IDEF12 : Organization Modeling
- IDEF13 : Three Schema Mapping Design
- IDEF14 : Network Design
In 1995 only the IDEF0, IDEF1X, IDEF2, IDEF3 and IDEF4 had been developed in full. Some of the other IDEF concepts had some prelimary design. Some of the last efforts were new IDEF developments in 1995 toward establishing reliable methods for business constraint discovery IDEF9, design rationale capture IDEF6, human system, interaction design IDEF8, and network design IDEF14.
The methods IDEF7, IDEF10, IDEF11, IDEF 12 and IDEF13 haven't been developed any further than their initial definition.

Famous quotes containing the word methods:
“Generalization, especially risky generalization, is one of the chief methods by which knowledge proceeds... Safe generalizations are usually rather boring. Delete that “usually rather.” Safe generalizations are quite boring.”
—Joseph Epstein (b. 1937)
