Evidence-Based Approach for Information System Complexity Management
نویسنده
چکیده
Complexity is a relative term. It depends on the number and the nature of interactions among the variables involved. In this paper, the evidence-based management (EBM) is considered as an approach to cope with university information system (UIS) complexity. The EBM approach permits to identify the reasons for the system existence and it deals with the "why" question. In the paper, the enterprise architecture (EA) model of university will be presented and opportunities to collect evidence for complexity management will be revealed.
