چکیده

Design and analysis of an enterprise frequently requires a model of the enterprise. These models are often viewed as a means to an end and are considered to have no intrinsic value in themselves beyond the purpose for which they were created. We propose that a living enterprise model will give the model value in itself to the enterprise. In this paper, we provide an explanation of what is meant by a living enterprise model. We give an overview of enterprise modeling along with key definitions. Ongoing enterprise efforts are reviewed as they relate to a living enterprise model. We then discuss the needs and requirements of living enterprise models and list some key issues. Finally, proposed future directions are presented.
