- Roof Tiles (dakpannen)
- Paving Stones (tegels)
- Bricks (bakstenen)
- Sand (zand)
- Mortar (cement)
To predict their future sales, they could contact a number of architect
agencies, but … what is the quality of the data given by these
agencies?

WHY this research?
- The concept is universal and is gaining
momentum.
- They ease the communication, and the
working with complex systems.
- They can serve as a basis for the third
level of integration.

1. Enterprise Architecture Descriptions are useful.
2. There has been few academic research on
enterprise architecture frameworks.
3. It interests me…

Goal
Improve and ease the Extended Enterprise integration exercise
Through:
1. an unambiguously defined, well-grounded, easily
understandable, integratable architecture model for the
Extended Enterprise integration exercise, and
2. a clear, well-grounded, easily understandable method to
draw up, maintain, and use the architecture descriptions to
their full potential.
This includes a link to other processes
