Solution

Flowcharts are visual representations of a process or workflow, and they can effectively display various workflow patterns such as decision, sequence, and synchronization. However, they may not display the "Swimlane" pattern as well as other diagrams specifically designed for this purpose.

Here's why:

  1. Swimlane: This pattern involves multiple parties or entities, each with its own 'lane' of operations. While flowcharts can incorporate swimlanes, they are not specifically designed for this and may not display the interactions between different lanes as clearly as a swimlane diagram or a cross-functional flowchart.

  2. Decision: Flowcharts are excellent at showing decision points. They use diamond shapes to represent decisions, with different paths stemming from the diamond to represent different outcomes.

  3. Sequence: Flowcharts are also great at showing sequences. They use a variety of shapes to represent different types of actions, and arrows to show the order in which those actions occur.

  4. Synchronization: Flowcharts can show synchronization, or the point at which multiple processes come together. They can use a variety of shapes to represent synchronization points, and arrows to show the flow of processes into and out of these points.

So, among the given options, flowcharts display the "Swimlane" pattern the least well.
