An Enterprise Modeling and Analysis Toolkit

A fully integrated modeling and analysis toolkit, which facilitates multi-perspective knowledge capturing, sharing and reusing, is necessary for today’s enterprises to meet the challenges of the ever more competitive global marketplace. In this paper we present a suite of software tools, designed and developed by Knowledge Based Systems, Inc., that can generate integrated solutions to complicated enterprise analysis including business process reengineering, activity based costing, and training. We start by providing a high level conceptual framework in which the individual tools with their roles and interrelations are presented. We then introduce each tool that make up the enterprise modeling and analysis toolkit in detail. The tutorial focuses on the ease and the user friendliness of (1) capturing domain knowledge into interchangeable multi-perspective models, (2) automatically generating and executing stochastic and deterministic analysis models from these multi-perspective models, and (3) publishing enterprise modeling and analysis results on the web.
