Design techniques for a seamless information system architecture

Abstract: The paper discusses design techniques for a seamless architecture of information systems (IS). A seamless architecture is understood as such an architectural de-scription of an IS, that defines explicit connections between elements of architec-tural models of various architectural representations. Design techniques are based on the adaptive clustering method developed by the author, which allows one to bridge technological gaps between architectural abstracts of different levels and to link architectural models in such a way as to ensure the design of a more detailed model based on a model of a higher level of abstraction.
