Enterprise Architecture As Explanatory Information Systems Theory for Understanding Small- and Medium-Sized Enterprise Growth
sustainability Article Enterprise Architecture as Explanatory Information Systems Theory for Understanding Small- and Medium-Sized Enterprise Growth Aurona Gerber 1,2,* , Pierre le Roux 1,3 and Alta van der Merwe 1 1 Department of Informatics, University of Pretoria, 0083 Pretoria, South Africa; [email protected] (P.R.); [email protected] (A.v.d.M.) 2 CAIR, Center for Artificial Intelligence Research, 0083 Pretoria, South Africa 3 Moyo, 0157 Centurion, South Africa * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 31 July 2020; Accepted: 7 October 2020; Published: 15 October 2020 Abstract: Understanding and explaining small- and medium-sized enterprise (SME) growth is important for sustainability from multiple perspectives. Research indicates that SMEs comprise more than 80% of most economies, and their cumulative impact on sustainability considerations is far from trivial. In addition, for sustainability concerns to be prioritized, an SME has to be successful over time. In most developing countries, SMEs play a major role in solving socio-economic challenges. SMEs are an active research topic within the information systems (IS) discipline, often within the enterprise architecture (EA) domain. EA fundamentally adopts a systems perspective to describe the essential elements of a socio-technical organization and their relationships to each other and to the environment in order to understand complexity and manage change. However, despite rapid adoption originally, EA research and practice often fails to deliver on expectations. In some circles, EA became synonymous with projects that are over-budget, over-time and costly without the expected return on investment. In this paper, we argue that EA remains indispensable for understanding and explaining enterprises and that we fundamentally need to revisit some of the applications of EA. -
Technology Update on the Unified Architecture Framework (UAF)

Abstract. Architecture frameworks continue to evolve. The Unified Profile for the Department of Defense (DoD) Architecture Framework (DoDAF) and the UK’s Ministry of Defence Architecture Framework (MODAF) (UPDM) provides a standard means of representing DoDAF, MODAF, and NATO Architecture Framework (NAF) conformant architectures using the Unified Modeling Language (UML), and Systems Modeling Language (SysML). Since the UPDM V2.0 publication, further information has emerged such as the June 2011 NATO study entitled: “Development of The AMN (Afghanistan Mission Network) Architecture In 2010 – Lessons Learned,” by Torsten Graeber of the NATO C3 Agency. This report identified the following in section 4.1-ARCHITECTURE FRAMEWORKS, sub-section 4.1.2 Observations (Need for a Unified Architecture Framework) and stated that: • differences in DoDAF, MODAF, and NAF make it difficult to match the metamodel one to one. • some of the concepts in the frameworks have the same name but different definitions, i.e. different semantics. • difficult to cross-walk the concepts between the different frameworks leads to miscommunication between architects using different frameworks. Based on the above, the NATO Architecture Capability Team (Architecture CaT) meeting on Sept. 10-11, 2012 committed to move to a single world-wide Architecture Framework. -
Study of Implementing Zachman Framework for Modeling Information Systems for Manufacturing Enterprises Aggregate Planning
Proceedings of the 2011 International Conference on Industrial Engineering and Operations Management Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, January 22 – 24, 2011 Study of Implementing Zachman Framework for Modeling Information Systems for Manufacturing Enterprises Aggregate Planning Radwan, A., and Majid Aarabi Department of Manufacturing and Industrial Engineering, Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Universiti Teknologi Malaysia, 81310 Skudai, Johor, MALAYSIA [email protected] , [email protected] Abstract Response time on orders of customers is becoming a critical issue to achieve a competitive advantage. A major problem is a lack of strategic perspective of information systems. A need for adequate tools and methodologies to model the system structure and to define integrated requirements is a must for the manufacturing enterprises. This paper presents a study of implementing Zachman Framework ZF to model information systems for aggregate planning activities within the manufacturing enterprises. An Information System for simulating the aggregate planning activities such as evaluating the various planes for determining the production rate, inventory levels, subcontracting and the required human resources is modeled. This is assumed to provide control over the order processes and reporting the orders status online. It is assumed that the customer can have access to the system to follow up with his order progressing status. Managers would have control on orders transactions, and workshop floor supervisors could monitor and control the orders processing online. Some artifacts are introduced to ZF to enhance its capability for modeling of information systems for Aggregate Planning in Manufacturing Enterprises. Keywords: Manufacturing Information Systems, Zachman Framework, Enterprise architecture, Aggregate planning, Modeling. 1. Introduction Nowadays, the enterprises encounter with numerous amount of data. -

Physical separation of data concerns Examples: • Presentation (UI) • Application Processing • Data Management Why split into layers? OSI Model Why split into layers? Separation of concerns! A change to one layer can have no bearing on the rest of the model e.g. Fiberoptic instead of Coax at the PHY layer OSI Model How does this apply to mobile? Application designers often want separation of UI and logic!

Integration of Product, Process and Functional Orientations: Principles and a Case Study
Integration of product, process and functional orientations: principles and a case study Ruth Sara Saven and Jan Olhager LinkiJping Institute of Technology, Department of Production Economics, SE- 581 83 LinkiJping, SWEDEN Email: [email protected]. [email protected] Abstract Companies are traditionally divided in specialised areas in a hierarchical organisation, usually referred to as functions. On the other hand, during the last decade companies have realised the importance of their processes. When they change towards a "process orientation" they must overcome some organisational problems to integrate the new process orientation into the already existing functional organisation. Besides, more and more importance is given to the specific characteristics of products, leading to product-driven manufacturing e.g. focussing on the product life cycles. Thus, one may find companies dealing with three different ways of working at the same time: product orientation, function orientation and process orientation. This paper addresses how product, process and functional orientations can be integrated, with the purpose of improving collaborative production management. In supply chains and networks it is of vital importance that concepts and terminology are shared among the collaborative partners. Even though this paper focuses on these issues for internal operations, the results can easily be transferred to multi-plant collaborative production environments. The proposed framework aims at providing a bridge between the Enterprise Integration and Operation Management fields. We identify important issues and factors to be considered, as well as point to approaches for analysing production systems based on an integrative view. Specifically we discuss the application of "model views" in analysing product, process and functional orientations in an empirical study of a large telecommunications company. -

Command is the ‘builder’ or ‘composer’ of the military organization (and its extra-military affiliations) in response to current operational needs. The commander may wish to adopt any of a variety of organizational configurations, yet is constrained to build his organization out of the existing military fabric (e.g. procedures, staff, equipment, HQ facilities). This is the architectural thesis of composition (the whole being constructed from known building blocks through the satisfaction of an architectural ruleset), being applied in the context of the command of a specific operation. Re-composition (re-build) continues in theatre in the form of Task Organization, and the ‘run-time’ behaviour of the organization are then excitations of features of the ‘built’ structure under the conditions of executing operational activities.
