25.09.07 - Avolution/BT to present at APC'07 in Budapest

Avolution, the market leader in metrics-based analysis of architectures, today announced that on the 24th of October together with British Telecom (BT) it will keynote present at the 16th Open Group Architecture Practitioner's Conference in Budapest, Hungary.

Dr Tim O'Neill from Avolution and Sean Luke from BT Global Services will deliver a presentation titled "Case Study: Enterprise Modelling at British Telecom (BT)".

Case Study: Enterprise Modelling at British Telecom (BT)
BT client programmes can involve hundreds of thousands of users, from a multitude of locations, concurrently requiring access to critical business services, from a single converged solution. Clearly, a well documented architecture of the solution is a step in the right direction, but to be successful the enterprise architecture approach must also include some advanced analytical techniques.

In this case study we will show how BT is applying the advanced techniques of Impact, Scenario and Trade-off analysis (based on TOGAF) and a metrics-based architecture method (based on ABACUS) to engineer an optimal solution for conflicting metrics such as performance, reliability, cost and agility.

About Avolution
Avolution provides the ABACUS® solution which is unique to the enterprise modeling space in that it can create multiple solution alternatives (architectures) and then run various simulations (Discrete Event, Monte Carlo etc) against each alternative for metrics such as Performance, Cost and Agility. In so doing it can recommend the optimal path for investment, with predictive and quantitative certainty. More information is available at www.avolution.eu.

• Build any number of solution alternatives and views all according to a completely flexible meta-model.
• Analyse your architecture(s) for metrics such as; Total Cost of Ownership (TCO), Performance, Availability, Agility and many more.
• View the architecture(s) and the results of any evaluation using advanced techniques such as; 3D, heat maps, capability spaces and trade-off diagrams.
