Towards an architecture modeling language for networked organizations

Reference models for Collaborative Networked Organizations (CNOs) is under development, but Enterprise Architecture Modeling Languages (EAMLs) for CNOs are very few. Lack of reference models makes it difficult for people to communicate with each other and lack of EAMLs also makes it difficult to implement information systems supporting CNOs. For enrichment of reference models and EAMLs for CNO we develop modeling constructs of an EAML. It supports (1) multi-level modeling based on OMG's Model-Driven Architecture for expressive power and ease of implementation, and (2) mufti-focus modeling based on Zachman Framework for completeness of modeling.
