1. [editor’s note] In the GERA modelling framework defined in Chapter 2 (and in all other modelling frameworks discussed in Chapter 3) a number of modelling views of the enterprise are introduced. As the this Chapter demonstrates, such enterprise models can be produced from different aspects.
2. [editor’s note] e.g. using simulation.
3. which was one axis of the enterprise cube (refer Fig. 10.4)
4. [editor’s note] To say that ’0% probable = impossible’ is mathematically speaking not exactly true (nor does ’100% probable = deterministic’), but for this treatment this is a legitimate simplification. What matters here is how certain the modeller is about the facts captured in the enterprise models. 5 [editor’s note] Probable means here that in light of the evidence the model gives predictable results. However, this does not necessarily mean that the modeller is necessarily certainabout the facts based on which the model was developed. Therefore the ’certainty’ factor is introduced.
