The increasing penetration of IT in organizations calls for an
integrative perspective on enterprises and their supporting
information systems. MERODE offers an intuitive and practical
approach to enterprise modelling and using these models as core for
building enterprise information systems. From a business analyst
perspective, benefits of the approach are its simplicity and the
possibility to evaluate the consequences of modeling choices
through fast prototyping, without requiring any technical
experience. The focus on domain modelling ensures the development
of a common language for talking about essential business concepts
and of a shared understanding of business rules. On the
construction side, experienced benefits of the approach are a clear
separation between specification and implementation, more generic
and future-proof systems, and an improved insight in the cost of
changes. A first distinguishing feature is the method's grounding
in process algebra provides clear criteria and practical support
for model quality. Second, the use of the concept of business
events provides a deep integration between structural and
behavioral aspects. The clear and intuitive semantics easily extend
to application integration (COTS software and Web Services).
Students and practitioners are the book's main target audience, as
both groups will benefit from its practical advice on how to create
complete models which combine structural and behavioral views of a
system-to-be and which can readily be transformed into code, and on
how to evaluate the quality of those models. In addition,
researchers in the area of conceptual or enterprise modelling will
find a concise overview of the main findings related to the MERODE
project. The work is complemented by a wealth of extra material on
the author's web page at KU Leuven, including a free CASE tool with
code generator, a collection of cases with solutions, and a set of
domain modelling patterns that have been developed on the basis of
the method's use in industry and government.
