Architecture Of Integrated Information Systems




ARIS (Architecture of Integrated Information Systems) is a method for analyzing processes and taking a holistic view of process design, management, workflow, and application processes.

As one of the Enterprise Modeling methods, “Architecture of Integrated Information Systemcs” (ARIS) provides four different aspects of applications:

  • The ARIS concept is the architecture for describing Business Process es.

  • The ARIS concept provides modeling methods, the meta structures of which are comprised in Information Models .

  • The ARIS concept is the foundation for the ARIS Toolset software system for the support of modeling.

  • The ARIS house of Business Engineering (HOBE) represents a concept for comprehensive computer-aided Business Process Management .



ARIS TECHNIQUES

ARIS varies three main perspectives of techniques. Firstly, in modeling enterprise models, ARIS uses a modeling language known as Event-driven Process Chains (EPC), which is an important aspect of the ARIS-model. EPC is the centre of the House of ARIS and connects all other views, as well as describing the dynamics of the Business Process .

On the other hand, based on the conceptual description, ARIS can model and structure Business Process Models . Furthermore, ARIS House has been developed to implement business models in Information System .
