ORG-Master: Combining Classifications, Matrices and Diagrams in the Enterprise Architecture Modeling Tool

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Communications in Computer and Information Science ((CCIS,volume 394))

Abstract

Enterprise architecture management is the basis of systemic enterprise transformations and information technology architecture development. Nowadays enterprise architecting is almost synonymous to diagramming. Diagrams are effective for knowledge elicitation, structuring, and dissemination. But as the number of diagrams and their types grows, they overlap and evolve, it becomes hard to maintain a collection of interrelated diagrams, even with the help of a common repository. Besides the very nature of enterprise architecting requires a lot of classifications (e.g. process architecture/classification) and matrices (goals - processes, processes - organizational roles, processes - applications…). The ORG-Master tool combines classifications and matrices with traditional diagram-based technologies.
