Architecture Frameworks: TOGAF, ArchiMate, Zachman & DoDAF “This is important work. It sits above EA. It sits above General System Theory and Socio-Cultural System Thinking as well. It clarifies many things, including the need to modify both ArchiMate and TOGAF in order to more usefully combine the two.” Web site reader TOGAF® and ArchiMate® are registered trademarks of The Open Group.
