Enterprise modeling - What we have learned, and what we have not

Abstract

Over the last 25 years, enterprise modeling has evolved from a loose collection of business oriented modeling practices to comprehensive frameworks for enterprise architectures. What was initially a combination of industrial and software engineering methodologies applied to enterprise design and development, is today dominated by the concerns of IT development, management and governance. This talk summarizes experiences from years of practice, research and development in the field, and points out directions for future development. © 2009 IFIP International Federation for Information Processing.
