Architecting
the Future Enterprise [PI.28s]
Donna
H. Rhodes, Ph.D., Deborah
J. Nightingale, Ph.D.
Enterprises often evolve in an ad-hoc,

the enterprise as a whole system.
This course looks at the enterprise
as a holistic and highly networked
structure wherein planning and decisions
must be accomplished by applying a
systems perspective and architecting
principles, considering all facets
of the enterprise.
