ABSTRACT:
Systems and methods for a reference model for the representation of an arbitrarily complex enterprise architecture are disclosed. These systems and methods provide a reference model composed of component types and relationship types useful in modeling an enterprise architecture. The reference model may be constructed according to a set of domains. A set of component types associated with each of these domains may be defined and relationship types defined for these component types. A data model of a particular enterprise architecture may then be instantiated using this reference model.
