Aggregated enterprise architecture wisdom
Enough discussing proposed fixes and improvements for ArchiMate (here, here, here, here and here). Time for a ‘normal’ modelling post. This time about the concept of virtual data. Most of you will know what a virtual machine is, so what … Continue reading →
OMG! Again, I forgot the KISS principle! ‘Keep It Short and Simple’ is core to successful communication and thus to success of EA. Recurrent oblivions of KISS seems almost to be both a personal and a general human character trait. KISS is unyielding; why do we persist not to learn? The core of the problem […]
Failing to appraise the situation properly is perhaps the main cause of failure for IT projects.
“What’s the theory of enterprise-architecture?”, a colleague asked the other day. “Is there any kind of coherent and consistent theory behind it that holds it all together?” Short answer: no. Slightly longer answer: yes. Or sort-of, rather. Both no and yes…
Failing to appraise the situation properly is perhaps the main cause of failure for IT projects.

Key Performance Indicators (KPI) or any other similar packaged goods such as Critical Success Factors (CSF) are often nice concepts as long as they do not escape into the real world. Let me start with my own misery. For commuting to work I use the train between Oxford and London via Reading. My station is … Continue reading The KPI misery →
Leon Festinger, American social psychologist, is credited to have developed the idea around Cognitive Dissonance Bioingine.com employs algorithmic approach based on Hyperbolic Dirac Net that allows inference nets that are a general graph (GC), including cyclic paths, thus surpassing the limitation in the Bayes Net that is traditionally a Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) by definition. The Bioingine.com approach thus more fundamentally […]
This week’s episode of Tom Cagley’s Software Process and Measurement (SPaMCast) podcast, number 373, features Tom’s essay on #NotImplementedNoValue and a Form Follows Function installment on simplistic mental models. Tom and I discuss my post “All models may be wrong, but it’s not a contest to see how wrong you can be”, talking about cognitive […]
Over the last few weeks we have posted a series of articles about the challenges at BriteLite and the way Brenda the Architect has helped solve them using architecture practices in general, and ArchiMate in particular.
