At the end of year 2007, I had proposed a different name, Enterprise Information Architecture, from Enterprise Architecture. Today I found exactly same term, EIA in your article. And core concepts look similiar with my idea. What I am saying is that EIA could be more suitable term in stead of Enterprise Architecture. With just the Enterprise Architecture, it is very difficult to imagine that it is related with information areas. Among Enterprise, Information and Architecture, the Information is the most important thing. Therefore Information should be never omitted. But current Enterprise Architecture community seem to cause some confusion between enterprise domain and information area by using Enterprise Architecture to represent the Information Architecture. Now I am a little bit relieved from the EIA, which is more sound usage, in my opinion. If you want more of my definition of EIA, please let me know.
