“…As the principles manifest general rules and guidelines to support an organization fulfilling its mission, defining the architecture principles is recommended as the initiating activity of EAM [18]; whereas principles constitute a foundation of thinking about the systems design [19] and the requirements, and, on the other hand, state the functional and constructional properties for a system to have [20]. Therefore, the principles can be seen as boundary conditions from which the implementable requirements are derived.…”

“…The EA principles can either serve as the designing principles that are used to describe the design of actual system artefacts or the regulative principles to convey a prescriptive notion limiting the design options allowed in a system design [21]. [20] characterizes the EA principles being the latter. It is argued that the EA principles are a specific form normative principles that "guide/direct the enterprise normatively restricting design freedom" [20, p. 11].…”

Organizations need to consider many facets of information security in their daily operationsamong others, the rapidly increasing use of IT, emerging technologies and digitalization of organizations' core resources provoke new threats that can be difficult to anticipate. It has been argued that the security and privacy considerations should be embedded in all the areas of organizational activities instead of only relying technical security mechanisms provided by the underlying systems and software. Enterprise Architecture Management (EAM) offers a holistic approach for managing different dimensions of an organization, and can be conceived as a coherent and consistent set of principles that guide how the enterprise must be designed. This article contributes with a method framework for integrating information security with EAM, aimed at providing support for the decision-making related to formulating context-aware EA security principles. The presented method framework is a result of a constructive research based on both the theoretical body of knowledge and the empirical evidence, obtained by interviewing 35 Finnish EA and information security practitioners.

Abstract. Telecommunication services are widespread and subject today to tensions on a competitive market. Telecommunication service design is more and more software oriented. To reduce time to market and cost of services, a service designer better need to simulate and evaluate his design earlier. The approach proposed in this paper is to reduce the abstraction gap between modeling and simulation phases using model transformation. But manual transformations are so far time consuming and error prone. As a trustworthy solution, model based techniques and associated transformations permit to systematically link service models with simulation phase before realization. We thus propose as a first contribution a meta-model dedicated to concepts of IP Multimedia Subsystem core network as a case study. Our meta-model constrains and defines such network entities to be used in the code generation, which is our second contribution. The implementation of a video conference service permits to illustrate our workbench.

“…Nevertheless, framework provides relevance of taking a holistic view of architectures for enterprise and focus on information system. [24] Indeed, EA framework can fill the gap of agile method in large enterprise. It can classify the view and method of the system to control and manage it easier.…”
