The question deals with the already established EA frameworks in various categories. These include Zachman from commercial frameworks, Open Group Architecture Framework (TOGAF) from open group frameworks, FEAF from government frameworks and Department of Defense Framework (DODAF) from defense frameworks (Jacco 2014, Nikpay et al, 2017). TOGAF is capable to be used as a general framework in any enterprise with modifications and therefore replaces GERAM and RM-ODP in that category. FEAF is the complete methodology with ZF-like classification and TOGAF like structural design process and excels over the TEAF in the federally developed frameworks category (Tang et al, 2004). DoDAF version 2.0 is an evolution of the C4ISR and NATO framework due to a limited application was dropped and replaced by DODAF.

For specific domains of application and/or communities of stakeholders, one should establish a set of conventions, principles, and practices for the architecture description; the standard calls this an architecture framework. An architecture framework comprises the following: (i) concerns regarding the system, (ii) stakeholders having those concerns, (iii) viewpoints, (iv) correspondence rules integrating the viewpoints, and (iv) model kinds composing each viewpoint (Iso.org, 2011). The shaded portion of Exhibit 1 shows the elements of an architecture framework and how components relate to each other. According to Simon et al. (2013), EA frameworks dominate the EA overall research field, and the most cited framework in the literature is the Zachman framework. For further information on this subject, Schekkerman (2004) offers a comprehensive overview of existing EA frameworks.
