dc.description.abstract | This thesis defines the concept of Dependable System Architecture (DSA), evaluation criteria for DSAs and applies those criteria to evaluate SAP, a leading ERP system. The evaluation criteria employ system frameworks, concepts, tools, components and methodologies. During the process of evaluation, this thesis touches upon many different architectural evaluations such as technical, operational, implementation and service and support. Finally, this thesis concludes whether SAP provides Dependable System Architecture for businesses. | en_US |
