6. Governing architecture
Architecture governance is the way in which different architectures are managed within a company (public or private). It is a key factor in being able to reuse the different results of the architecture process within a project, or more generally within a company for other projects.
There isn't just one level of governance, but several, each with its own disciplines and processes, depending on whether the emphasis is on strategic aspects (external when they relate to the company's business area, internal when it's a question of how the company should organize or operate), or more technical or technological aspects.
Governance is about defining rules to ensure that the company functions properly. It's less a question of strictly controlling perfect adherence to the rules, than of defining principles that enable the company's available resources...

Software tools
The design and validation of complex system architectures are generally covered by software tools:
that are general in scope and not linked to the specific field of architecture. For example, note-taking or mind-mapping tools can be used to support the perception of what already exists;
or very specific and often proprietary tools. For example, a "Battle...
