Architecture Content Framework (Part IV)
(
)
(Kan erstattes av Archimate) Provides a detailed model of architectural work products, inlcuding Deliveables, Artifaces within deliverables, and the Architecture Building Blocks (ABB) that deliveralbes represent. - it drives for greater consistency in the outputs of TOGAF - it provides a comprehensive chekclist of architecture outputs - it promotes better integration of work products - it provides a detailed open standard for how architectures should be descibed - it includes a detailed metamodel Deliverables - formal products, - contractually specified - Ouputs from a project. - A deliveralbe can contain many artifacts Building blocks - components that can be combined with other building block to deliver architectures and solutions. e.g. Data set Artifaces - fine grained products that describe an archiecture from a specific viewpoint. For example: use-case specification, archiectual requirements, network diagrams, etc. Classiied as: Catalogs, matrices or diagrams (pictures of things) - catalogs - lists of things (being building blocks) - matrix - two dimensional matrixes. e.g that maps two building blocks - diagram - visuelt. It is about * Definition of Architecture Artifacts * Definition of Architecture Deliverables * Definition of Building Blocks * Content Metamodel (core+full) Content Metamodel defines all the types of entities, building blocks * Defines how they can be described and related to on another * Promotes better integration between different architectures Example: * Actor - a person, organization, or system that is outside the organization * Application Component * Business service
