- Research projects have an inherent risk of failure, and learning howto cope with the risk is an important task for everyone involved. In order to doso it is necessary to share the knowledge of the experiences done during andafter the project. This paper investigates a recently completed enterprisemodeling research project and contributes with lessons learned andrecommendations for future enterprise modeling projects.

- A clear understanding of the organizational competences of anenterprise and the underlying individual competences and the competencedevelopment needs has become more and more important for many industrialareas as a foundation for competence supply processes and adjustment tochanging market conditions. Competence modelling, i.e. the use of enterprisemodelling techniques for capturing existing and describing desiredorganisational and individual competences in enterprises, offers importantcontributions to this. In the last years, the authors of the paper have performed anumber of competence modelling cases, which revealed different characteristicsand resulted in lessons learned. This paper presents an examination of differentcharacteristics of competence modelling cases, and recommendations andlessons learned from these cases for the practice of competence modelling.

A Repository Architecture for Business Process Characterizing Model
- 2010
-
Ingår i: The Practice of Enterprise Modeling. - Berlin, Heidelberg : Springer Berlin/Heidelberg. - 9783642167829 - 9783642167812 ; , s. 162-176

- In this paper, the Business Process Characterizing Model (BPCM) repository architecture is presented. The repository architecture follows a three-layer model composed of a presentation layer, a repository management layer and a storage layer. The objective of the architecture proposed here is to organize BPCM models in a manner that enable their reutilization, and some guidelines on how to use the BPCM repository are provided. Business users are expected to be able to benefit from the advanced functionalities provided by the BPCM repository. Furthermore, based on the evaluation of the BPCM repository by comparing it with some other process repositories, we find that the BPCM repository can offer most features other process repositories are able to provide with the exception of control flow.

Towards a Unified Business Strategy Language : A Meta-model of Strategy Maps

- Alignment between business strategies and the resources engaged ensuring their realization, has been a continuous concern of enterprises of all kinds in last few decades. Commonly, enterprises fail to establish the traceability from business strategies towards operational tasks carried by employees. From the requirements engineering perspective this problem leads also to a misalignment between business and IT assets. In this study, we argue that for communicating high-level intentions and strategies down to the operational perspective, i.e. tasks and resources, the core necessity is to have a rich and well-defined language for modeling business strategies. Such a language could be further utilized for facilitating formalizations and a constructive analysis of high-level business aspects of enterprises, as well for comparing and unifying existing intentional modeling languages from the business and requirements engineering domains. As a reference proposal for formalizing business strategies, we consider the well-established strategy maps [1] from the Management Information Systems community which provide textual concepts of strategy-related notions establishing causal relationships between them. We have set an effort to formalize strategy maps in the form of a meta-model, usage scenarios and constraints, providing a systematic basis for obtaining a unified language/ontology for business strategy modeling.

Integration of Interactive, Behavioral and Structural Aspects of Conceptual Models

- Conceptual modeling is an essential part of enterprise engineering activity. Unfortunately, enterprise modeling methods are projecting interactive, behavioral and structural dimensions of conceptualizations into totally different diagram types. If static and dynamic aspects are analyzed separately, they are more difficult to visualize and to understand for stakeholders. Moreover, in the traditional approaches, there is a paradigmatic mismatch among different enter-prise architecture modeling dimensions. Analysis of interplay among interactions, state changes and object creation/termination effects is necessary for un-derstanding integrity problems of conceptualizations. The goal of this paper is to present a modeling approach for semantic integration of static and dynamic views of conceptual models. The presented modeling method can be used for separation of crosscutting concerns of computation neutral specifications

- Enterprise Modeling (EM) has established itself as a valuable instrument for various purposes related to organizational development, such as designing or redesigning the business, eliciting requirements for information systems, capturing and reasoning about organizational knowledge. A notable characteristic of EM is its collaborative way of stakeholder involvement in modeling. Much of the success of projects using EM depends on how the EM process is organized and on the competence level of the expert responsible for the EM approach. This paper analyses what are the competence needs for the method expert and what competences are needed in the different steps in the EM process. The EM process described consists of activities for project inception and planning, conducting modeling sessions, and delivering a result that can be taken up by a subsequent implementation project. Two main competence areas are discussed in relation to the EM process - competences related to modeling and competences related to managing EM projects.
