Abstract
The barrier to interoperability between software applications is not technology. The barrier is business processes.
Business Processes
Up till now we have been focusing on technology.
Fig 1 - Problem Space
We have lots of technology
- Excel
- Oracle and SQL Server Databases
- Java
- ...
- Commercial Mapping Software
What is the Problem?
It is:
- The costs of setup and configuration
- Repeating costs for setup and configuration
- The cost of interpretation (information ambiguity)
- Exposed complexity
- The new global, distributed work execution model amplifies the problem
- Aging Workforce
Fig 2 - A New Approach
We need to focus on Information Modeling.
The sun will shine brighter, and God will smile on us.
[OK, so I need some help here... GPR]
Ideas
- Senior management has to agree to this
- IT folks from the business partners need to get together
