Motivation
Need for heterogeneous information Different people need different information
Enterprise Architect provides the possibility to manage „all“ information, but…
EA is a complex tool Many modeling languages Tooling (Where is what?) Where to start, where to end?
Different roles need different views to get information… they need in a way to easily understand it
Embedded World 2013
Why not using EA alone
EA is customizable Tool bars, toolboxes, menus
But still too complex??! EA is a swiss army knife
But often you only need a spoon!!??
Embedded World 2013
EnArWebcan be configured to show only the
required information which is needed by the user
in a comprehensive and user-friendly way
EnArWeb 1.0

EnArWeb in a Nutshell
WEB-based access to Enterprise Architect (EA) models from everywhere
No client installation required Simple table-based user interface - no modeling
knowhow required Work on same EA models via web browser and with
EA application Customizable role-oriented views Traceability through all development phases Scalable from local up to enterprise level All in one - communication platform for different
roles, suppliers and customers
Embedded World 2013
How to benefit from EnArWeb
Brigdes the gap between users who EA users and not-EA users
Portal-based approach Role-based security system Simple and customizable UI Direct acces without consistency problems Simple views and dedicated workflow

What Requirement Engineers do
works with stakeholders and end users elicits, understand, analyze and document
the requirements control the realization of requirements
And how to support them with EnArWeb…

And inside EA…
Embedded World 2013
End-to-End Traceability (within EA) Define, model, manage and trace
requirements Define an organized, hierarchical
requirements model Trace system requirements to model
elements Search and report on requirements Perform impact analysis of proposed changes
to requirements

Conclusion and Outlook
Web-based front-end for Enterprise Architect No client installation Simple user-interface Different views for different roles of different
users with different rights … to get the right information in an optimized
view
Look forward to: Configurable layout Diagram view
