Integrating Value Modelling into ArchiMate

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Business Information Processing ((LNBIP,volume 103))

Abstract

Present day enterprises often become service-oriented enterprises, which are comprised of a dynamic network of organisations that collectively provide services. These services express stakeholders’ needs, and can be viewed from different perspectives. In this paper, we consider value web and enterprise architecture perspectives. Specifically, we present a step-wise mapping approach that integrates the value modelling technique e3value into the enterprise architecture language ArchiMate. The main contribution of this paper is twofold. First, we present our initial arrays into how to bridge between e 3 value and ArchiMate and, in doing so, we show how these modelling techniques complement one another. Second, by reflecting on the bridging between e 3 value and ArchiMate, we discuss the limitations of our integration, which provides useful input for future efforts into model integration. We illustrate our approach by means of a case in the insurance domain.
