2.6 TOGAF
The Open Group Architecture Framework is a framework -
a detailed method and a set of supporting tools - for
developing an enterprise architecture. It may be used freely
by any organization wishing to develop an enterprise
architecture for use within that organization [11]. TOGAF is
developed and maintained by members of The Open Group,
working within the Architecture Forum (refer to
www.opengroup.org/architecture).
The original development of TOGAF Version 1 in 1995 was
based on the Technical Architecture Framework for
Information Management (TAFIM), developed by the US
Department of Defense (DoD). The DoD gave The Open
Group explicit permission and encouragement to create
TOGAF by building on the TAFIM, which itself was the
result of many years of development effort and many
millions of dollars of US Government investment.
TOGAF has been proposed to allow users to implement
open solutions to lower costs, simplify processes associated
with designing, planning, acquisition and integration of
open systems, and help CIOs (Chief information officer) to
better communicate their goals and strategies for decision
makers [2]. Moreover, TOGAF has been proposed in order Figure 3 Architecture Development Method [11]
