“…The architecture analysis execution environment (A2E) (presented in [11], [12]) is comprised of three main components: The Analysis Definition, the Analysis Execution and the Model Storage. An overview is given in figure 5.…”

“…The Model Storage is built using an RDF Triple Store and adapters to several EA modeling tools like Innovator or Archi but also for CSV files. Internally, the model is represented using the Generic Meta Model (GMM) [11], [12]. This meta model represents an EA model as a stereotyped graph with nodes, edges and properties for the nodes and edges.…”

“…DFA is a method to compute context-sensitive information based on declarative specification [23]. Through the combination of those techniques, we are able to provide an analysis execution environment that is able to deal with different meta models, incomplete EA models as well as covers most of the analysis types applied in the EA context [12]. In order to support our proposed method adequately, the A2E presented in [12] was extended with the Gap Analysis and the possibility to store different versions of one architecture in the model storage.…”

“…the change status of an element is calculated with respect to the change status of the related elements. In [12] we integrated the change impact analysis in the analysis execution environment. The analysis therein supports two different modes: A static mode calculates the effects using predefined propagation rules in a worst-case and a best-case scenario.…”

The business model and IT infrastructure of organizations are changing continually. Trends like microservices and digital transformation demand an adaption of the business models and IT infrastructure in order to stay competitive. It is important to ensure the compliance of these new projects with the current goals and principles. The discipline of Enterprise Architecture (EA) Planning provides methods for the structured development of the business and IT of an organization. In this paper we propose a tool-supported method for EA planning to evaluate to the project compliance based on established models. Different analyses are used to support the architect during project planning. Gap and impact analysis are used to ensure the change consistency. The compliance with the current strategy is finally evaluated with view generation and metric calculation. Foundation of the method is a generic analysis architecture execution environment (A2E), that provides us with the required flexibility to adapt to different needs and meta models. The method and the proposed analyses are evaluated within a case study from a medium-sized software product company.
