Process modeling captures workflows and sequences of activities, not the physical or logical breakdown of a product's components.

Data modeling organizes and defines data structures, entities, and their relationships, which is unrelated to identifying hardware components.

Functional decomposition involves systematically disassembling a system, product, or process into its individual parts to understand their roles and relationships. Ben's action of physically disassembling the printer and cataloging each component's purpose is a textbook application of this technique. It is used in business analysis to model scope, identify system boundaries, and clarify how sub-components contribute to overall functionality.

Scope modeling defines the boundaries of a solution or project, not the internal structure of an existing product's components.
