Transition between flow charts and Jackson Structured Program (JSP)

This paper aims to bridge the gap between two widely used methods of screening program flow, and enhancing interoperability between Jackson Structured Programming (JSP) diagrams and flow charts. Both the techniques are commonly practiced and are used to define the program flow for easy understanding and development. This conversion will facilitate software engineers/architects during designing phase. Proposed technique aims to converge both techniques (Flow charting and JSP) on a single platform rather than multiple platforms and wasting the crucial time on decoding from one format to other when required. This enhances the different flow and specification understanding. We have developed a middleware for the above mentioned task which is platform independent and requires only the knowledge of the technique the programmers are working on, and with no effort generate the desired results.
