Architecture languages and frameworks

This overview contains an extensive list of possible (partial) modeling languages. Use multiple languages sparingly. Some of ArchiMate is probably necessary. See also the examples in the documentation of modeling languages via the websites that exist around these modeling languages. The Model Wizard within EA is also suitable for further explanation. This is not an exhaustive list and may be developed differently in the context of specific organizations. This diagram provides a detailed description of the most important sub-models and diagram types to provide an idea of the scope and level of detail within the modeling languages.
