Kokonaisarkkitehtuuri kehittämisen välineenä Hollolan kunnassa

Työssä käsitellään kokonaisarkkitehtuuria kehittämisen välineenä Hollolan kunnassa. Kokonaisarkkitehtuurin avulla kuvataan ja kehitetään organisaation toimintaa, toiminnassa käsiteltävää tietoa ja teknologista toimintaympäristöä kokonaisuutena strategialähtöisesti. Kokonaisarkkitehtuurin käyttäminen on julkishallinnon organisaatioille toisaalta lakisääteinen velvollisuus, toisaalta keino ohjata toimintaympäristön kehittymistä toimintalähtöisesti. Tämän työn tavoite on luoda edellytykset kokonaisarkkitehtuurimenetelmän käyttämiselle Hollolan kunnassa. Tutkimus suoritetaan toimintatutkimuksena, jossa tutkija esittelee ja edesauttaa uuden menetelmän käyttämistä ja havainnoi tämän myötä saavutettuja tuloksia. Työn teoriaosa käsittelee kokonaisarkkitehtuuria erityisesti kansallisena tietohallinnon ohjaamisen välineenä ja kehittämismenetelmänä. Tämän työn tärkeimmät tulokset ovat Hollolan kunnalle sovitettu kehittämismenetelmä, kokonaisarkkitehtuurin hallintamalli ja menetelmän avulla tuotetut kuvaukset nykytilasta ja viitearkkitehtuurista. Työssä havaittiin, että luonnosvaiheessa oleva julkishallintoa ohjaava yhteinen kokonaisarkkitehtuuri on vielä keskeneräinen ja sen tulkinta on vaikeaa. Lisäksi havaittiin, että kokonaisarkkitehtuurimenetelmän käyttäminen vaatii organisaatiolta paljon, mutta tämän työn perusteella hyviä tuloksia voidaan saavuttaa jo menetelmän käytön varhaisessa vaiheessa.

The Application of Enterprise Architecture Approach to Military Concept Development–Case Study

Abstract—Concept development and experimentation (CD&E) plays an important role in driving strategic transformation in the military community. Defence architecture frameworks, such as the NATO architecture framework, are considered excellent means to support CD&E. There is not much empirical evidence, however, to indicate how enterprise architectures (EA) are applied in the military community or particularly in military CD&E. Consequently, this paper describes and discusses empirical application of the EA approach in CD&E. The research method in the paper is a case study. Situational method engineering (SiME) is used as a framework to adapt the EA approach to the case project of the paper. The findings of the paper suggest that the EA is applicable to CD&E work, although all aspects of the original concept could not be expressed in the EA model of the case project. The results also show that the SiME method can support in applying the EA framework to the CD&E in the case project.

The Impact of European Macroeconomic News Announcements on CIVETS Stock Markets

The purpose of this research is to investigate how CIVETS (Colombia, Indonesia, Vietnam, Egypt, Turkey and South Africa) stock markets are integrated with Europe as measured by the impact of euro area (EA) scheduled macroeconomic news announcements, which are related to macroeconomic indicators that are commonly used to indicate the direction of the economy. Macroeconomic announcements used in this study can be divided into four categories; (1) prices, (2) real economy, (3) money supply and (4) business climate and consumer confidence. The data set consists of daily market data from CIVETS and scheduled macroeconomic announcements from the EA for the years 2007-2012. The econometric model used in this research is Exponential Generalized Autoregressive Conditional Heteroscedasticity (EGARCH). Empirical results show diverse impacts of macroeconomic news releases and surprises for different categories of news supporting the perception of heterogeneity among CIVETS. The analyses revealed that in general EA macroeconomic news releases and surprises affect stock market volatility in CIVETS and only in some cases asset pricing. In conclusion, all CIVETS stock markets reacted to the incoming EA macroeconomic news suggesting market integration to some extent. Thus, EA should be considered as a possible risk factor when investing in CIVETS.

Enhancing the development of military capabilities by a systems approach

The political environment of security and defence has changed radically in the Western industrialised world since the Cold War. As a response to these changes, since the beginning of the twenty-first century, most Western countries have adopted a ‘capabilities-based approach’ to developing and operating their armed forces. More responsive and versatile military capabilities must be developed to meet the contemporary challenges. The systems approach is seen as a beneficial means of overcoming traps in resolving complex real -world issues by conventional thinking. The main objectives of this dissertation are to explore and assess the means to enhance the development of military capabilities both in concept development and experimentation (CD&E) and in national defence materiel collaboration issues. This research provides a unique perspective, a systems approach, to the development areas of concern in resolving complex real-world issues. This dissertation seeks to increase the understanding of the military capability concept both as a whole and with in its life cycle. The dissertation follows the generic functionalist systems methodology by Jackson. The methodology applies a comprehensive set of constitutive rules to examine the research objectives. This dissertation makes contribution to current studies about military capability. It presents two interdepen dent conceptual capability models: the comprehensive capability meta-model (CCMM) and the holistic capability life cycle model (HCLCM). These models holistically and systematically complement the existing, but still evolving, understanding of military capability and its life cycle. In addition, this dissertation contributes to the scientific discussion of defence procurement in its broad meaning by introducing the holistic model about the national defence materiel collaboration between the defence forces, defence industry and academia. The model connects the key collaborative mechanisms, which currently work in isolation from each other, and take into consideration the unique needs of each partner. This dissertation contributes empirical evidence regarding the benefits of enterprise architectures (EA) to CD&E. The EA approach may add value to traditional concept development by increasing the clarity, consistency and completeness of the concept. The most important use considered for EA in CD&E is that it enables further utilisation of the concept created in the case project.
