A Method for Enterprise Architecture Alignment
نویسندگان
چکیده
Business and ICT strategic alignment remains an ongoing challenge facing organizations as they react to changing requirements by adapting or introducing new technologies to existing infrastructure. Enterprise Architecture (EA) has increasingly become relevant to these demands and as a consequence numerous methods and frameworks have emerged. However these approaches remain bloated, time-consuming and lacking in precision. This paper proposes a light-weight method for EA called LEAP and introduces a language for EA simulation that is illustrated with a detailed case study of business change currently being addressed by UK higher education institutions.

متن کاملMisalignment Symptom Analysis Based on Enterprise Architecture Model Assessment
Business–IT alignment and misalignment are duality-like concepts referring to the harmony or disharmony between business and IT. The state between these two areas can be viewed either through its presence (a.k.a. alignment) or through its absence or difficulties (a.k.a. misalignment). Most of alignment studies deal with alignment achievement, while misalignment issues (detecting, analysing and ...
