Title: 

The Future of Unified Architecture Framework (UAF)

Abstract:  

The Unified Architecture Framework® (UAF®) is based on the Unified Profile for DoDAF and MODAF™ (UPDM™). UAF defines ways of representing an enterprise architecture that enables stakeholders to focus on specific areas of interest in the enterprise while retaining sight of the big picture. UAF meets the specific business, operational and systems-of-systems integration needs of commercial and industrial enterprises as well as the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD), the UK Ministry of Defence (MOD), the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) and other defense organizations.

Although based on the DoDAF and MODAF standard, UAF continues to evolve. New views and concepts include Human factors, Strategic processes, value chains, drivers, challenges, risks and opportunities, system configurations over time, integration with RAAML, security and assurance cases, portfolio management and model-based acquisition. This presentation will give a background to the UAF, a view of its present state and a preview of what’s to come.
