Article on Cybernetic Perspective on EAM accepted at IEEE SMC 2009

The article A Viable System Perspective on Enterprise Architecture Management has been accepted for publication at the 2009 IEEE International Conference on Systems, Man, and Cybernetics (IEEE SMC 2009). In this article, the author team (S.Buckl and C.M.Schweda) discusses, how the cybernetic model of the viable system can be employed to explain the different interacting systems, which together form the EA management system. Based on this perspective, current EA management approaches from literature are analyzed. In particular, their coverage of the five constituing subsystems of a viable system is assessed. From this, a course of action for future research is sketched.
