Abstract
EA (Enterprise Architecture) is an instrument that is employed to describe the organization’s structure, business layout and operations within the IT (Information Technology) environment. Different types of organizations extensively employed EA for aligning their business and operations with IT resources. EA may also be employed in non-organizational setting such as service providing agencies; rescue, medical emergency and education services. This paper suggests an EAF (Enterprise Architecture Framework) for non-organizational setting by critically analyzing the top four EAs. The paper also proposes a new m-Health service model based on the mobile GPS (Global Positioning System) for train/ rail passengers by employing the ArchiMate modeling language and compares the proposed model with existing service providers.
Highlights
EA is a framework broadly used as a tool for describing the organization’s structure, services and business operations
Hundreds of passengers are affected from medical emergencies due to non-availability of proper medical services in trains. In this connection this research proposes a better m-Health service model based on ArchiMate service layer
The section of this paper demonstrates how to use ArchiMate in non-organization sittings by proposing new m-Health service model based on GPS system for Pakistan railway passengers
Summary
EA is a framework broadly used as a tool for describing the organization’s structure, services and business operations. EA can be applied for service providing agencies (non-organizational settings); such as, delivering services to people of certain vicinity through technology including rescue and emergency services and educational services. These services are offered by government and non-government agencies. Hundreds of passengers are affected from medical emergencies due to non-availability of proper medical services in trains In this connection this research proposes a better m-Health service model based on ArchiMate service layer. It suggests a better EAF for modeling, designing, aligning and understanding different functions of the service providing agency.
