Ontology-Based Approach for Heterogeneity Analysis of EA Models

The different needs and domains of enterprises and how they employ EA modelling languages and tools can give rise to heterogeneity at the syntactical, structural and semantical levels. In particular, models dealing with the process perspective are becoming increasingly complex and hetereogeneous. This raises difficulties in managing and reusing EA models.
