Modeling for Everyone – UML® Profile for BIZBOK® by Chris Armstrong

Presentation Abstract:
This session will review the UML Profile for BIZBOK® created at the Business Architecture Guild created to increase adoption of BIZBOK®-based modeling for existing UML tool users. Not only does this solution diminish the need for end-users to create their own one-off solutions, but will also allow integration of Business Architecture models with other OMG-based model content (UML®, SysML®, BPMN™, BMM™, UPDM™/UAF). Speakers will also review several case studies that demonstrate real-world end-user application.
