Semantic interoperability in the Internet of Things: An overview from the INTER-IoT perspective

Thank you for reading information systems development methodologies techniques and tools. As you may know, people have search numerous times for their favorite books like this information systems development methodologies techniques and tools, but end up in harmful downloads. Rather than enjoying a good book with a cup of tea in the afternoon, instead they are facing with some infectious bugs inside their desktop computer.

Information Systems Development Methodologies Techniques And Tools

By repurposing agility principles established in software engineering, this paper provides an overview on the practice of Agile Modeling Method Engineering (AMME) driven by evolving requirements and motivated by emerging paradigms and research initiative -- e.g., Enterprise Modeling, Factories of the Future, Internet of Things, Cyber-physical Systems. The approach has emerged from experiences with meta-modeling projects developed within the frame of the Open Model Initiative Laboratory (OMILab), where flexibility challenges have been raised by (a) evolving modeling requirements, (b) modeling requirements propagating from run-time systems requirements, as well as (c) requirements pertaining to domain-specificity. The framework and the characteristics of AMME are hereby discussed with respect to both methodological and architectural aspects and the Open Model Initiative Laboratory is be presented as an instance setup of the generalized AMME framework.

From Expert Discipline to Common Practice: A Vision and Research Agenda for Extending the Reach of Enterprise Modeling

Analysis and planning of Enterprise Architectures (EA) is a complex task for stakeholders. The change of one architecture element has impact on multiple other elements because of manifold relationships and interactions between them. The interactive cockpit approach presented in this paper supports stakeholders planning and analyzing EAs and to tackle the intrinsic complexity. This approach supplies a cockpit with multiple viewpoints to put relevant information side-by-side without losing the context combined with interaction functionality. In this paper, we develop such cockpit starting with relevant use cases, describing a potential design based on well-established foundations in EA modeling, and outline an exemplary usage scenario.

Interactive Functions of a Cockpit for Enterprise Architecture Planning

The need for organizations to operate in changing environments is addressed by proposing an approach that integrates organizational development with information system (IS) development taking into account changes in the application context of the solution. This is referred to as Capability Driven Development (CDD). A meta-model representing business and IS designs consisting of goals, key performance indicators, capabilities, context and capability delivery patterns, is being proposed. The use of the meta-model is validated in three industrial case studies as part of an ongoing collaboration project, whereas one case is presented in the paper. Issues related to the use of the CDD approach, namely, CDD methodology and tool support are also discussed.

Capability Driven Development: an Approach to Designing Digital Enterprises

Managing IT within the business context and not as a stand-alone function is becoming increasingly important for business success, the complex structures of enterprises have to be managed holistically. The integration of bordering processes, which address organizational changes, must be realized to guarantee an enterprise-wide management of the different architectures. This can be reached by implementing Enterprise Architecture Management (EAM). After introducing the challenges of EAM implementation that resulted from a number of investigations we performed, this paper introduces the state of our research proposing a general context for finding the capabilities in an enterprise - EAM capability catalog - and a preliminary draft of its structured development process, the EAM capability solution matrix, to overcome these challenges.

Development of an Enterprise Architecture Management Capability Catalog

Due to the dynamic changes in business environments enterprises adjust their business services and information technology systems. This is a prerequisite to deliver an enhanced business capability to the customers. Such needs address that the information systems should be aware of the context that they are operating in. This work explores context modelling research domain conducting a systematic literature review (SLR) in a limited time frame and literature resources. The work concludes that although the term context is widely used in computer sciences, there is no methodology or a common language to model context in identified articles.

State of the Art in Context Modelling – A Systematic Literature Review

Lately, the notion of capability has emerged in IS engineering as an instrument to context dependent design and delivery of business services. Representing core business functionalities of an organization, capabilities, and capability driven IS development can be seen as both – a shift beyond and complement to the widely established service-oriented engineering paradigm where needs of customers form the leading modeling and design perspective. To ensure the needs of business stakeholders for variety of business contexts that an organization faces, and thus facilitate successful systems delivery, capability- driven development needs a well-defined method for requirements engineering, as well as its confirmation in practices. In this paper a process for specifying requirements capabilities and their designs is proposed. An application of the proposed approach to the area of business process outsourcing (BPO) services is carried out for the German company SIV.

Requirements Engineering for Capability Driven Development

Competitiveness and growth on an international market is for many businesses tightly coupled to their ability of quickly implementing new company strategies, business services and products or market entries. Capability management is among the approaches proposed to tackle these challenges. A feature is capturing the context of capability delivery and providing mechanisms for configuring the delivery. Among the work on capability management is the capability-driven design and delivery (CDD) approach that has been proposed by the EU-FP7 project CaaS. The aim of this paper is to contribute to CDD by (i) introducing different strategies for capability modelling, (ii) elaborating on the differences between these strategies, and (iii) contributing to an understanding of what strategy should be used under what preconditions. The paper addresses these aspects by describing the strategies and initial experiences gathered with them.
