Around the world, Enterprise Architecture (EA) practices are been formed in large and medium companies that see in IT either a competitive advantage or a requirement for survival. These EA practices produce models that conceptualize the enterprise, and are commonly used only for communication purposes. Using these models also for analysis purposes is desirable, but this is hard to do because of the complexity and size of these models. Automated analysis tools seem to be adequate mechanisms to solve this issue, but currently there is a problem of mismatch between the information available in the models, and the information that the automated mechanisms require. To address this, this paper proposes a characterization of analysis functions, which makes explicit the information that each one requires to be executable (among other things). Furthermore, the paper presents
ArchiAnalysis,
an extensible tool for applying analysis functions over ArchiMate models.
