Voices of Authorities and Shareholders Affect Voices of Processes

Abstract

There are several voices (e.g., needs or requirements) concern the business. In this paper, the voices of authorities, shareholders and processes are defined to be controlled voices the effects of which can be considered within functional domains and enterprise entities. The Voice of the Authority (VoA) is in common controls, the Voice of the Shareholder (VoS) is in corporate controls and the Voice of the Process (VoP) is in process controls. Three constructions are proposed to strength the meaning of the controlled voices. First, common, corporate, and process controls are mapped within two functional domains (i.e., control and operations) of the Industrial Internet Reference Architecture (IIRA) to illustrate the importance of the voices. Second, 11 related entities (i.e., control, course of action, data entity, driver, event, function, goal, measure, process, and service) of the Togaf 9.2 content metamodel are mapped within control and operations domains. Third, the definitions of the entities are mapped within the voices of authorities, shareholders and processes. The Voice of the Authority and the Voice of the Shareholder affect processes via contract, control, and course of action entities. We discuss the meaning of the constructions in the context the healthcare.
