 1. What is the role of an EA framework within the EA methodology?

2. Select a real-world medium or large size enterprise and provide:
a) The phases and steps of an appropriate EA implementation methodology.
b) The way that EA stakeholder support will be obtained.
c) The recommended schedule for updating the EA.
3. Why does an EA implementation methodology begin with the selection of an EA framework?
4. Choose a medium or large size enterprise and provide the following regarding the areas of the EA3
Cube framework:
a) List examples of documentation from the enterprise that would be appropriate at each of the five
functional levels.
b) List examples of documentation from the enterprise that would be appropriate for the three
common planning threads.
c) List examples of documentation from the enterprise that would illustrate Lines of Business.
d) List examples of documentation from the enterprise that would illustrate crosscutting
5. Why can an enterprise’s business services, information flows, applications, and networks be viewed
as EA components?
6. Why are national and international standards important to EA components?
7. List several hypothetical EA components at each level of the EA3 Framework for a large automobile
manufacturing company.

this chapter with the use of the term in the software and application development industry.
b) Obtain the Annual Report of a Fortune 500 corporation and list potential EA components at
each level of the EA3 Framework.
8. What are the differences between traditional (ERD and DFD) data modeling techniques and object￾Oriented data modeling techniques (UML)?
9. Find a public or private sector enterprise and identify the following current EA components/artifacts
at each level of the EA3 Cube Framework:
a) Identify current strategic goals, initiatives, and outcome measures.
b) Identify current LOBs, business services, and associated activity/flow diagrams.
c) Identify current information flows and data documentation in each LOB.
d) Identify the current IT systems and applications that support information flows for each LOB.
e) Identify the current IT infrastructure and networks that host IT systems and applications.
10. How can the ongoing transition between current and future EA views be managed?
11. How can Business Process Improvement (BPI) and Business Process Reengineering (BPR)
activities be reflected in future views at the Products & Services level of the EA3 Cube Framework?
12. How can changes in information flows and data structures be reflected in future views at the Data &
Information level of the EA3 framework?
13. How can changes in applications and functionality be reflected in future views at the Applications &
Systems level of the EA3 Cube Framework?
14. How can changes in voice, data, and video networks be reflected in future views at the Networks &
Infrastructure level of the EA3 Cube Framework?
15. Develop a future scenario for an enterprise that describes changes in processes, human factors, and
technology. Identify the planning assumptions that underlie these changes.

      independent variable

      Which of the listed variables does a researcher mainly use in his or her approach with intent to establish validity - specifically, construct validity? ·         independent variable ·         confounding variable ·         dependent variable ·         participant variable ·         extraneous variable ·         third variable Instructions: With our engagement in this discussion we will likely touch upon learning objectives/competencies 2.2 and 2.4 as dependent upon the various variable selections and replies. (a) Please briefly define the two concepts (variable type(s) selected from the list and construct validity) using our text by Cozby and Bates (2015) or another credible source. (b) Then, support your view...

      Starting with this provided code, add the following functionality

      1.Starting with this provided code, add the following functionality: Replace hardcoded strings “Zero”, “One”, “Two”, “Three” in the ArrayList based on user typed input (use Scanner or JOptionPane classes). The user will be prompted for the String to be stored in the ArrayList and then hit enter. The user will be able to continue to add items to the ArrayList until they just hit enter without typing anything. Once the user does this (hits enter without typing anything), the program will display all of the elements of the ArrayList, both the index and String values, in a table. It will do this via a single loop making use of an iterator method. 2. Starting with this provided code, add the following functionality: Use a Try/Catch block so that the exception is caught and the program exits a bit more gracefully. Save this file as TryCatch.java. (Be sure to rename the Public Class accordingly.) Starting with the provided code again (without the Try/Catch block), fix the code so that ...
