The origin of IDEF0 standard
IDEF0 is a compound acronym (Icam DEFinition for Function Modeling, where 'ICAM' is an acronym for Integrated Computer Aided Manufacturing)
The IDEF0 Functional Modeling method is designed to model the decisions, actions, and activities of an organization or system. It was derived from an established graphic modeling language. In its original form, IDEF0 includes both a definition of a graphical modeling language (syntax and semantics) and a description of a comprehensive methodology for developing models.
The field of application of IDEF0
IDEF0 is used to show data flow, and the functional flow of lifecycle processes. IDEF0 is capable of graphically representing a wide variety of business, to any level of detail. It provides rigorous and precise description, and promotes consistency of usage and interpretation. It is well-tested and proven through many years of use by government and private industry. It can be generated by a variety of computer graphics tools.
A modeling tool to identify all the requirements
IDEF0 may be used to model a wide variety of automated and non-automated systems. For new systems, it may be used first to define the requirements and specify the functions, and then implement the activities that meets the requirements and performs the functions. The result of applying IDEF0 to a system is a model that consists of a hierarchical series of diagrams, text, and glossary cross-referenced to each other. The two primary modeling components are: functions (represented on a diagram by boxes) the data and objects that inter-relate those functions (represented by arrows).
The IDEF0 model is based on a simple syntax: Each activity is described by a verb-based label placed in a box. Inputs are shown as arrows entering the left side of the activity box . Output are shown as exiting arrows on the right side of the box. Controls are displayed as arrows entering the top of the box. Mechanisms are displayed as arrows entering from the bottom of the box.
Inputs, Controls, Outputs, and Mechanisms are all referred to as concepts

IDEF0 semantic
Arrow : A directed line, composed of one or more arrow segments, that models an open channel or conduit conveying data or objects from source (no arrowhead) to use (with arrowhead). There are 4 arrow classes: Input Arrow, Output Arrow, Control Arrow, and Mechanism Arrow (includes Call Arrow). The arrow are bended in rectangular angle and cannot be oblique
Box : A rectangle, containing a name and number, used to represent a function.Train
A1
IDEF0 semantic
Context : The immediate environment in which a function (or set of functions on a diagram) operates.
Decomposition : The partitioning of a modeled function into its component functions.
Fork : The junction at which an IDEF0 arrow segment (going from source to use) divides into two or more arrow segments. May denote unbundling of meaning
Function : An activity, process, or transformation (modeled by an IDEF0 box) identified by a verb or verb phrase that describes what must be accomplished.
Join : The junction at which an IDEF0 arrow segment (going from source to use) merges with one or more other arrow segments to form a single arrow segment. May denote bundling of arrow segment meanings
Node : A box from which child boxes originate; a parent box.

Conclusion
The IDEF0 is a very useful model to design any activity
Good quality training need to be “re-designed” continuously to take into account the market needs
The research center could have the role to anticipate the needs of the market and training the trainers
A good communication campaign has to be build in order to promote the employment of qualified workers.
