From Business Process to Component Architecture: Engineering Business to IT Alignment

International audience; Maintaining the alignment between the Business and IT is of high strategic relevance in today's enterprise roadmap. In this paper, we follow our previous assumption that this alignment will be better maintained if we are able to ensure a clear conceptual alignment between the Business Processes and the Software Architectures. As our aim is to provide an environment that would flawlessly support evolutions of the processes or of the architecture while maintaining this alignment, we build on the formal foundation that we have developed to ensure it and shows how it can be actually developed with current Model Driven Engineering technologies.
