Enterprise System and Modelling Concept
ENTERPRISE
Definition
Comprises interdependent resources of people, information, and technology
Interact with each resources and their environment
A complex and socio-technical system
Support for a common mission
Example
Virtual enterprises
Supply chains
Not-for-profit
Government
Program
Unit
Companies
Program
Division
Features
Man-mad systems
integrated collection of people and technology
Use resources of people/materials/machines/information/knowledge
Produce a product, provide a service, or do both
Have customers
derive the value of product/service
Have a goal
profitability and growth
Interact with their environment
obtaining raw materials, labor, and other resources from their environment
competing or collaborating with other enterprises
being subject to changes in the political/social/economic/technical aspects of their environment
SYSTEM
Definition
Interacting parts/subsystems
Form an integrated whole from parts/subsystems interaction
A set of descernible
Able to distinguish between each part/subsystem
Support single goal/purpose
MODEL
Definition
An abstract representation of a real-world system
Emphasizes some aspects of the system while excluding other aspects
What is concluded or excluded depends on the purpose of model
Why do we need it?
Eliminating the detail that does not influence its relevant behavior
help us to master the complexity of the system being modeled
Reduce the complexity of understanding or interacting with a system
MODELLING CONCEPT
Abstraction
Example
IDEF0
the top level is very abstract
more detailed are added in subsequent level
Should be suitable for the model's purpose
More details are not always better
Work at an abstraction level sufficient for the model's purpose, neither more or less
Viewpoint
Multiple perspectives are necessary to fully understand the enterprise system
Should be orthogonal (should show a different perspective)
Should be consistent
Example
Building construction views
Architectural drawings
Mechanical drawings
Electrical drawings
Purpose
Example
DFD
shows how data is exchanged through the system
does not show sequence of activities
Flowchart
shows the sequence of activities
does not show how data flows through system
Should be specific
Should be documented
Determines aspect of the system's features and behavior
