View: Rules Definition

Answers the question: What rules constrain the use of the Architecture Description Framework?

Only a few rules will be established until pilot Enterprise Architecture Descriptions have been prepared.

The following rules have been identified:

• The Plan viewpoint is the first view to be created
• The organization viewpoint establishes the types of organizations and their relationships as identified in a value system model.
• The Organizational Capability Model is used to identify the key processes, technologies and people competencies needed for the organization. The same model for team capabilities is used at the organizational capability level.
