Abstract

Enterprise modeling (EM) is an established practice in many organizations, but the majority of stakeholders in organizations who produce content relevant for EM use drawing or presentation tools instead of formalized EM techniques. The model-like content of such drawings or presentations often is very valuable for enterprises which calls for a way of integrating it with “real” models and other structured knowledge sources in organizations. This paper investigates how the model-like content of Powerpoint presentations can be extracted and transformed to EM. The main contributions of the paper are (a) an approach for model extraction from Powerpoint, (b) identification of heterogeneities to be tackled during the extraction process and (c) a prototype implementation demonstrating the approach based on ADO.xx.
