The "Technical Architecture Framework for Information Management" (TAFIM) was described in 1995 as: [3] a target common conceptual framework or reference model for an information system infrastructure; and the specific applications that the information system must support. This architecture, and associated model, is not a specific system design ...
An architecture framework is a set of tools that can be used for developing a broad range of different architectures [weasel words]. [5] It should: describe a method for defining an information system in terms of a set of building blocks; show how the building blocks fit together; contain a set of tools; provide a common vocabulary
A management information system (MIS) is an information system [1] used for decision-making, and for the coordination, control, analysis, and visualization of information in an organization. The study of the management information systems involves people, processes and technology in an organizational context.
An information system (IS) is a formal, sociotechnical, organizational system designed to collect, process, store, and distribute information. [1] From a sociotechnical perspective, information systems comprise four components: task, people, structure (or roles), and technology. [2]
The ARIS concept (Architecture of Integrated Information Systems) by August-Wilhelm Scheer aims to ensure that an enterprise information system can completely meet its requirements. This framework is based on a division of the model into description views and levels, which allows a description of the individual elements through specially ...
COBIT (Control Objectives for Information and Related Technologies) is a framework created by ISACA for information technology (IT) management and IT governance. [1]The framework is business focused and defines a set of generic processes for the management of IT, with each process defined together with process inputs and outputs, key process-activities, process objectives, performance measures ...
Enterprise architecture regards the enterprise as a large and complex system or system of systems. [3] To manage the scale and complexity of this system, an architectural framework provides tools and approaches that help architects abstract from the level of detail at which builders work, to bring enterprise design tasks into focus and produce valuable architecture description documentation.
A complete CM program includes provisions for the storing, tracking, and updating of all system information on a component, subsystem, and system basis. [ 6 ] A structured CM program ensures that documentation (e.g., requirements, design, test, and acceptance documentation) for items is accurate and consistent with the actual physical design of ...
