“I have spent much of my career delivering ?things? ? projects, systems, presentations, seminars, workshops, strategic plans, roadmaps, research reports, budgets ? way too many budgets. But when I look back at my 30 odd years as an IT and business professional it isn?t the ?things? I delivered that created the most meaning for me or the most value for others. It was the contributions (large and small) I was able to make to others? success that really mattered. This is a good thing since most of my career has been in management and consulting where the measure of one?s value comes through the success of others.”

Here is the DIGB-SA study Archimate model that has been built with Archi 2.6:

2014-03-26-DIGB-SA.archimate.zip

If you don’t want to install Archi, you can have a look at the model here:

http://www.jfdeclercq.biz/files/DIGB-SA-Archi-Model/report.html

I have received the authorization from my clients to publish it in order to:

• Encourage the modeling practice and reuse among public libraries
• Share with the Archimate community as an example

The model reuse is subject to the following  restriction:

YOU SHALL NOT MARKET, SELL OR RESELL THE DIGB-SA ARCHIMATE MODEL

This model is published for reuse by public libraries. It can’t be marketed, sold or resold.

This model has been developed by Jean-François Declercq in the context of the DIGITAL LIBRARY SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE study by ordered by:
- Bibnet vzw
- Vereniging van de Vlaamse Provincies
- Vlaamse Gemeenschapscommissie van het Brussels Hoofdstedelijk Gewest

Cfr http://jfdeclercq.biz/tag/digb-sa/

PS: A Dutch version of this model is available at Bibnet (http://www.bibnet.be).

The reports of  the study on the current and future system architecture of the  digital library have been recently published.

The term “digital library” is here used as a collective name for all of a library’s products, processes and services that are digital and/or automated.

The study summary lists the future work zones for the  Flemish Public libraries:

1. Business intelligence (BI)
2. IT maturity
3. Web presentation
4. Identity and Access Management (IAM)
5. Digital Collections
6. Collection Management and cataloguing
7. Architecture consolidation (SOA)

The summary is available in French, Dutch and English:

• Summary:  DIGB-SA_ManagementSummary-EN
• Résumé de l’étude:  DIGB-SA_ManagementSummary-FR-Final
• Samenvatting :  DIGB-SA_ManagementSummary-NL

The complete study has three main chapters :

• Current system architecture of Flemish public libraries (AS-IS)
• Evolution of the Flemish public libraries’ System architecture (change requirements)
• The Future system architecture of Flemish public libraries (TO-BE)

The future system architecture is in fact a generic future-proof ICT blueprint for a public library. The blueprint is a set of business services, business processes, Applications, SOA Services and technological elements documented in the Archimate notation.

The complete study is available

• in English : 2013-11-27-DigitalLibrarySystemArchitecture
• in het Nederlands:  2014-02-04-DigitaleBibliotheekSysteemArchitectuurStudie

I would like to thank the colleagues who worked with me on this study:

• François Vermaut (IT Strategy, BPM, SOA, ITIL…)
• Rosemie Callewaert (Public Library field expertise, User Experience, BIBFRAME, FRBR…)
• Simon Kroeger (Proof reading english text)
• Veerle Vanlooy (Vertalingen Vanlooy)

I also would like to thank the steering commitee (Bart Beuten, Jan Braekman, Patrick Vanhoucke ,Stefaan Froyman), all the workshop and participants. Their input has been key. I would like also to thank Alexandre Lemaire who helped me to compare the Flemish situation with the situation of the Fédération Wallonie-Bruxelles.

If you are looking for Mobile Apps development, have a look at Zend Studio.

This monday 28-JAN-2014, we managed to install Zend Studio and develop a web mobile app easilly.

We found ZendStudio to be much easier to setup and use than the Sencha  suite of tools (including Sencha Touch).

Zend Studio integrates Cordova and packages it easily to help you access the native functions of Windows, iOS and Android devices.

The nice thing with Zend is that is it allows you ton integrate plain html files and other javascripts in your project resulting in great flexibility in the app design.

The only glitch we had was a problem with the Android emulator which was not willing to start. I downloaded Bluestacks to test our application.
