EVOLUTION MANAGEMENT FRAMEWORK FOR MULTI-DIMENSIONAL INFORMATION SYSTEMS

Abstract

Information Systems (IS) have become key elements in enterprise activities and are now fully embedded into business units. Productivity gained by this proximity is to be balanced with more strategic requirements against the Information System. In particular, due to the proximity to business layers, adaptability property of IS is more than ever required. The framework we have developed aims to keep synchronized multiple descriptions of the same system in case of evolution. Its foundations are based on RM-ODP viewpoints and meta-modelling technology. A prototype tool to support the framework has been developed as an EMF/Eclipse plug-in.
