Teaching information systems: An i∗-based approach

Abstract:

Modern enterprises rely on information systems (IS) both to support their operation and provide information required to endorse strategic decisions. Because of their increasing complexity, such systems are usually constructed by integrating software components of different nature and origins, into hybrid systems, for which architectural design plays a fundamental role. If well engineered, it becomes the blueprint required for IS to add value to the organization. However, IS architecting is not an easy task, mainly due to the fact that engineers often lack of knowledge related to business strategy and operations, but also proper training in methods and techniques required to conduct IS architectural design in a well-structured way, without losing focus on business strategy. In this paper we present an i∗-based approach to lecture information systems, which keeps in mid both business strategy and technology.
