Moving From Checkmate to Archimate
ArchiMate is an exciting new development within The Open Group that is focused on providing mechanisms to support enterprise architects in describing, analyzing and visualizing the relationships between business domains in an unambiguous way. The aim of this presentation is to introduce the Archimate Language to South African architects with a special focus on describing the key elements of the notation. A sample set of domain viewpoints described by ArchiMate is also discussed and explained.
