It is in this second segment where a concept > often missed by other authors is covered. After giving a list of > well-known problems with existing development methods, he states: > > /"The traditional systems development approach - interviewing users > based on existing business processes and then identifying their future > needs - does not work well in periods of rapid change, such as today." > In fact I will make this point stronger, "if we base our needs for the > future on operational processes that we still use today - we are > implicitly assuming that the future will be similar to the past. This > is very dangerous; few industries and enterprises can say today that > their future will be like their past. Most know that the future will > be quite different. The only certainty we have is that the processes > we will need then are quite different from the processes we use today."/ > > This key point is important for all architects to understand. It's > not just detailed business rules that change, its entire business > models that change - and often this happens even if the organization > is not looking for change. Readers who keep this thought in the front > of their minds will understand why activities such as strategy > planning and the implementation of enterprise architectures are necessary. > > Read complete Book Review in TEN#32. > <http://www.ies.aust.com/ten/ten32.htm>. > > Back to Contents <#Contents> > > *Home <http://www.ies.aust.com/index.htm> > Courses <http://www.ies.aust.com/ies-courses/courses_index.htm>* > > *Certification <http://www.ies.aust.com/cbdm/cbdm_index.htm>* > > *Projects <http://www.ies.aust.com/ies-projects/projects_index.htm>* > *Papers <http://www.ies.aust.com/articles.htm>* > *TEN Archive <http://www.ies.aust.com/ten/TEN_index.htm>* > > *Contact Us <http://www.ies.aust.com/site-changes/contact-us.htm>* > > *Search <http://www.ies.aust.com/search.htm>* > *Links <http://www.ies.aust.com/links.htm>* > > *Online Store > <http://svc004.bne009i.server-web.com/catalogue/visible/default.shtml>* > > > > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > AUTHOR > > Clive Finkelstein is the "Father" of Information Engineering (IE), > developed by him from 1976.
