It is based on models of business and IT with systematic frameworks. The scope of the enterprise architecture includes the people, processes, information and technology of the enterprise, and their relationships to one another and to the external environment. Evaluation of enterprise architecture enables, organizations to assess their current situation. Definitely, it allows optimizing the alignment, business strategy, organizational culture, business, people, process and technology. This architecture optimization provides a cost-effective and also helps to ensure the proper execution of objectives and organizational goals. In this regard, this paper provides an approach based on network analysis towards EA analysis, and especially towards the agility of enterprise architecture, we propose a method for assessing agility achievement of different TO-BE scenarios and using different indicators based on the archimate metamodels of the enterprise architecture layers. {\textcopyright} 2015 IEEE.}, doi = {10.1109/CloudTech.2015.7336965}, url = {https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84962786632\&doi=10.1109\%2fCloudTech.2015.7336965\&partnerID=40\&md5=49f383001be0a2dde5c140886f6cf85d}, author = {Lakhrouit, J.a and Benhaddi, M.b and Ba{\"\i}na, K.a} } @article {Lakhrouit201463, title = {Model and application architecture indicators of evaluation the enterprise architecture}, journal = {Advances in Intelligent Systems and Computing}, volume = {276 VOLUME 2}, year = {2014}, note = {cited By 0}, pages = {63-71}, abstract = {Enterprise Architecture EA provides a "knowledge base and support for decision making within the enterprise and it serves as the blueprint of current situation and strategy for future directions of the enterprise". The planning and modeling aspect of EA is already fairly well covered in the literature, while the evaluation and the attributes of EA quality have attracted less interest and yet enterprise architecture quality has been perceived as a prerequisite for realizing its benefits [6]. The principle goals of EA evaluation are to document the significance of the EA to decision makers, and to identify the development needs of the EA. However it is very difficult to find a complete method of evaluation in term of indicators of evaluation and which ensures the follow-up of all the stages of development of the architecture of company. This article presents a generic model of evaluation enterprise architecture. We do not want to use attributes directly because the model definition could vary in different organizations. Therefore, we introduce this artifact as an intermediate layer as not to limit the flexibility of evaluation. {\textcopyright} Springer International Publishing Switzerland 2014.}, doi = {10.1007/978-3-319-05948-8_7}, url = {https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84898670994\&doi=10.1007\%2f978-3-319-05948-8_7\&partnerID=40\&md5=c7824a321a2dc3256cd2ed974cad4309}, author = {Lakhrouit, J.a and Ba{\"\i}na, K.a and Benali, K.b} }
