Er is nog geen overeenstemming over wat architectuurprincipes precies zijn, wat voor soorten architectuurprincipes worden onderkend, hoe je architectuurprincipes beschrijft en hoe je precies tot architectuurprincipes komt. Op het Landelijk Architectuur Congres 2007 is er daarom een workshop over dit onderwerp georganiseerd. Dit artikel is een verslag van die workshop.

We have not yet discussed the person who needs to execute these tasks; The Enterprise Architect. In this chapter, we aim to discuss the competencies, attitudes, and abilities needed by an enterprise architect to best conduct

Unfortunately, so far no architecture description language exists that fully enables integrated enterprise modelling. In this paper we focus on the requirements and design of such a language. This language defines generic, organisation-independent concepts that can be specialised or composed to obtain more specific concepts to be used within a particular organisation. It is not our intention to re-invent the wheel for each architectural domain: wherever possible we conform to existing languages or standards such as UML. We complement them with missing concepts, focussing on concepts to model the relationships

We studied if and how those understandings may change over time during a student's progress through their academic curriculum. To do so, we performed a longitudinal study with a group of students starting computing and information science studies at Radboud University Nijmegen. We followed them from the beginning of their studies as they learned new theories, techniques, and languages for modeling. We focused on investigating whether their conceptual understandings changed as they became acquainted with new languages and techniques, and whether there were correlations between the introduction of such educational stimuli and changes in their conceptual understanding. We discuss the seeming lack of connection between these stimuli and such changes, and reflect on what this means for the training of people in conceptual modeling.
