A taxonomy of a living model of the enterprise

An enterprise engineering approach for the alignment of business and information technology strategy

“…Of the different proposals for EA, we have selected the most relevant in the research area and its implementation in enterprises (Whitman et al 2001, Vasconcelos et al 2004, Narman et al 2007, Greefhorst et al 2006, Chen et al 2008. The analysis was carried out by partially following the proposal of Avila et al (2009) which identifies between two other aspects to be analysed: Alignment Sequence (Table 1) and Involved Domain (Table 2).…”

A framework for evaluating the quality of modelling languages in MDE environments A framework for evaluating the quality of modelling languages in MDE environments

“…From these seven studies, a relevant contribution was found in (Whitman et al, 2001). This study takes advantage of the DoDAF framework to compare and evaluate modelling languages as part of the exploration of executable architectures, which are framed into three dimension: DoDAF elements, the formality of the modelling, and the implementations that can be achieved from the modelling language under analysis.…”

“…Excluding the work found in (Whitman et al, 2001), no other EA frameworks were found for classifying modelling languages. Of the seven primary studies:…”

“…Relevant findings (Whitman et al, 2001) To propose a methodology for the classification of enterprise models EA models (from AE frameworks) The Zachman taxonomy was taken as a reference architecture to create own classifiers and make a comparison and understanding of enterprise models. …”

Applying Enterprise Architecture to Business Networks

“…This focuses on a more enterprise-centric perspective (Figure 2.16), although these two views are not completely separative and carry elements which can be applied at both local and global levels. [Barber et al, 2003, Dewhurst et al, 2002, Whitman et al, 2001. techniques can be used to capture the behaviour of an organization and its systems to ensure the feasibility of achieving business objectives.…”
