A challenge in Information Systems Design Science Research (ISDSR) is the evaluation of constructedInformation Systems Design Theories. March and Smith (1995, p. 254) state that “significant difficulties… result from the fact that artifact performance is related to the environment in which...

Based on an IEEE definition and its adaptation by The OpenGroup enterprise architecture (EA) is often defined as the fundamentalorganization of a company or government agency and theprinciples governing its design and evolution [16, 25]. Whiledesign representation issues like meta-modeling or...

Enterprise architecture management (EAM) is expected to providebusiness value by guiding the continuous development andtransformation of an enterprise. Based on the approach we strivefor constructing useful artifacts that guide the successful andsituational design of EAM. In order to do so we...
