Aligning Communication Analysis with the Unifying Meta-Model for Enterprise Modeling

• Enterprise Modeling (EM) captures and represents organizational know-ledge in models that cover different views of the enterprise. The models can be leveraged in the development of information systems. Investigating how to use them as input to Model-Driven Development (MDD) is an open challenge. This paper explores how a holistic EM approach, represented by a unifying meta-model, can benefit from integrating with Communication Analysis, a communication-oriented business process modeling and requirements engineering method. As a first step towards an integrated EM-enabled MDD approach, the unifying meta-model and Communication Analysis meta-model are aligned. A set of guidelines for trans-forming models conforming to the unifying meta-model to Communication Analysis models are formulated. The approach is illustrated using of a lab demo.
