Architecture provides a unifying structure (or roadmap) for exploration of the problem space and for characterization of the solution space such that better decisions can be made about the system under development. Systems architecting when done well can improve the impact of the system solution.
This workshop will describe an approach for flowing down from enterprise goals and objectives, from the system purpose and mission needs, down through operational requirements and concept of operations, and finally into the capability, operational, system and project views of the architecture. These views are then used to develop a comprehensive set of requirements that best characterize and scope the system to be engineered.
