Componentization and service orientation are two key firm's behavioral orientations to transform the traditional (rigid) enterprise model into a flexible (dynamic) one in order to support making successful sourcing decisions like sharing services, in-outsourcing, centralization-decentralization and globalization. According to these enablers, a subjective and dynamic view is needed to study the dynamic nature of enterprises and to interpret the complex emerging phenomena of componentization and service orientation such as dynamic configuration of resources (dynamic capabilities), internal and external interaction between components, service exchange and value creation. In this paper, our solution is applying viable system approach (vSa) in Enterprise Engineering, 1) as an interpretive approach to qualify the concepts of the complex emerging phenomena of componentization and service orientation, 2) as a governance approach to investigate the implications of the complex emerging phenomena for sourcing decision making like sharing, in-outsourcing, centralization-decentralization and globalization.

Many forward-thinking organizations have adopted domain-specific languages (DSL) as the preferred method for describing business processes. Using DSL-based descriptions helps in removing uncertainty from the semantics of process models. DSLs can evolve in a managed way and with proper versioning of individual processes the original intentions of process designers can be preserved over time. However in collaborative projects, business processes written in different DSLs need to be converted to a common denominator format to facilitate exchange. Due to its widespread adoption, BPMN is ideally placed to serve as the exchange language for complex, cross-domain collaborations. This paper presents an approach for automatic two-way synchronization of domain-specific process models with BPMN diagrams. This approach can be valuable when collaboration between different stakeholders with different expertise is required, as well as when the company wants to leverage its investments in a BPM suite across its process portfolio. In addition, this approach ensures that changes to processes executed through the BPMS are valid with respect to their domain representations, minimizing the potential for runtime problems that are difficult to understand.

This paper presents an approach for generating a migration script for existing models of an evolved DSL. The approach has two major benefits: first, unnecessary migration actions are eliminated automatically. Second and even more important, the necessity of human intervention during migration is determined automatically. The necessity of migration is determined by analyzing a DSL's metamodel and evaluating pre- and post conditions of transformation operator sequences.

This paper is presenting a discussion of feral information systems (FIS) in relationship to enterprise architecture (EA) thereby aiming to better qualify the architectural understanding of information systems not in line with corporate IT/IS strategy and policies. A qualitative and case-based approach is used as empirical foundation of this paper. With users developing own IS, classical strategy-based EA approaches are challenged. Identifying FIS can strongly improve insight into organizational processes and shortcomings official EA. A functional and temporal perspective is proposed to guide EA processes to embrace unofficial, user-driven systems. As FIS tend not to follow any rules of corporate IS, EA embrace of FIS is more complex. Using a meta-model for the social and operational character of FIS this complexity can be managed along with the improve business insight. The recognition of FIS in EA both opens up for insight in local adaptations of business processes, but can also create room for low-cost innovation and rapid response to changes in business conditions. Several forecasts are suggesting corporate IT/IS to be more user-driven and with reduced control from IT/IS professionals. This paper is opening a discussion on EA practice when centralized control is assumed to decline. EA has a tendency to be developed "top-down" emphasizing strategic alignment. In this contributed it is suggested to include social and operational alignment in EA practice.

The ability to build complex business services is a crucial factor for implementing inter- and cross-organizational business processes. We propose a two-phase composition approach for services leveraging the benefits of cloud-environments. The materialization contains three steps: the definition of the composition workflow, the optimization of the composition workflow and the execution. The provisioning phase is followed by the service provisioning phase. It uses the extensibility and configuration operations of cloud-environments in the materialization to build complex business services. The two-phase composition process is a step towards a method for the model driven creation of complex cloud services.

With the increase in the number of quality attributes (e.g. cost, availability, reusability), that are being considered in the process of enterprise architecture analysis, the decision maker needs a systematic way to balance these attributes against each other to obtain the best possible architecture. Utility theory addresses this need by providing methods for numerical representation of preferences of a stakeholder involved in a decision-making process. In this paper utility theory key concepts are explained with examples. The process of calculating the utility metric, which reflects stake holder's set of preferences to select the most preferred architecture scenario is explained. The paper provides an explanation of how utility theory can be applied in enterprise architecture models which are meta-object facility compliant. This paper concludes by an example comparing two quality attributes on two architecture scenarios using utility theory and calculating the decision maker's overall utility metric across both quality attributes is provided. This shows the applicability of utility theory on architecture scenario analysis with multiple quality attributes.

Visualizations are common means to analyze Enterprise Architecture (EA) models and support decision makers with relevant information on organizational processes, information systems, infrastructure, and their interconnections. These EA visualizations are tailored typically to the specific information demand of stakeholders. Currently, creating such stakeholder-specific visualizations requires experts with a strong technical background due to complex configurations and inflexible tool solutions. In particular business users often lack technical expertise. At the same time, their concerns and questions often arise spontaneously. In this vein, visualizations that can be generated without expert knowledge would enable business users to perform ad-hoc analyses of an EA information model. Against this background, we propose a solution which facilitates analyses of arbitrary EA information models by non-technical stakeholders. Our approach is based on ad-hoc, configurable visualizations. We introduce an end-user friendly wizard that lowers the barrier for the creation of EA visualizations. The wizard is based on structural pattern matching of models. Key to our approach are abstract viewpoints that model best-practice knowledge of EA visualizations and abstract view models which model the information demand of abstract viewpoints. Our contributions in this paper are 1) a meta-information model capable to capture both the technical information demand of an abstract viewpoint and the information offer of an EA information model, 2) a pattern matching algorithm calculating viable configurations for bindings of visualizations to information, and 3) a wizard to support non-technical stakeholders with the creation of these visualizations. We present an implementation of our approach and show user interface design of the wizard. The wizard recommends feasible configurations automatically in order to unburden the configuration process for non-technical stakeholders.

In the past, logistics used to be a core function of production and trading companies but many of them started to outsource at least parts of their logistics functions to specialized logistics service providers in terms of logistics contracts. With this, sophisticated business models such as value added logistics service providers evolved which concentrate on tasks of planning, coordination and monitoring of entire supply chains. Most of these tasks encompass a variety of isolated steps in order to deliver efficient logistics processes. In this paper, an approach that supports the integrated planning of logistics contracts is presented. A mechanism for integrating different models which are used during isolated planning tasks is described in detail. Further, an example shows how to generate a simulation model starting from a process description and hence how to make consistently reuse of models.

Enterprise architecture supports the analysis, design and engineering of business-oriented systems through multiple views. Each view expresses the elements and relationships of a system from the perspective of specific system concerns relevant to one or more of its stakeholders. As a result, each view needs to expressed in the architecture description language that best suits its concerns. Therefore, an enterprise architecture may be described using a set of different languages. However, current enterprise architecture modelling languages display two issues in this setting. First, they lack mechanisms to integrate multiple architecture description languages. This issue hinders the specification of views using different languages. Second, enterprise architecture models lack quantitative analysis support. This paper describes an ontology-based approach in order to have a modular ontology for the enterprise architecture domain, to specify and integrate multiple architecture modelling languages and to analyse the resulting integrated models. The approach relies on transformations between an upper-domain ontology based on the ArchiMate language and on a set of domain-specific ontologies to deal with the specific architecture modelling languages. The resulting models are quantifiable in the sense they provide the means to assess the consistency of the enterprise architecture models and to analyse their structure. The applicability of the approach is shown through a case study and the correctness of the ontology is shown by a set of competency questions.
