Accountability, Responsibility, Fairness, Compliance, Discipline and Transparency

Responsibility, Fairness, Compliance, Discipline, Transparency and Independence

Transparency, Independence, Accountability, Responsibility, Fairness and Compliance

Independence, Accountability, Responsibility, Fairness, Compliance and Discipline

Which of the following statements about Requirements Management phase is correct?

This phase is executed at the beginning

Prioritizing requirement is an activity of this phase

TOGAF has a recommend process for requirements management

It does not dispose of, address, or prioritize any requirements; this is done within the relevant phase of the ADM

It focuses on minimizing changes to requirement

Which among the following statements is NOT correct?

TOGAF recommends the way in which functionality, products, and custom developments are assembled into building blocks

Every organization must decide for itself what arrangement of building blocks works best for it

An architecture is a composition of a set of building blocks and the specification of how those building blocks are connected

Various building blocks in an architecture specify the services required in an enterprise specific system

A good choice of building blocks can lead to improvements in legacy system integration, interoperability, and flexibility in the creation of new systems and applications

In which ADM phases, does Architecture Governance performed and operated?

It is established in Preliminary Phase and operated on all subsequent phases

It is established in Phase A and operated on Phase F to H

It is established in Preliminary Phase and operated on Phase G and H

It is established in Preliminary Phase, refined in Phase A and operated on Phase F to H

It is established in Phase A and operated on Phase E to G

According to TOGAF, which of the following is the reason why the first execution of an ADM cycle will be more difficult than later cycles?

Because management is not familiar with the ADM process

Because there are few architecture assets available

Because the Baseline Architecture must be fully defined across the enterprise

Because of insufficient trained architecture practitioners

Because of lack of governance

According to TOGAF, all of the following are suggested characteristics of an architecture framework, except __________

A set of structures which can be used to develop a broad range of architectures

A list of recommended standards

A common vocabulary

A software development lifecycle method

A method for designing a target state of the enterprise in terms of building blocks

Which of the following is not described by a Business Scenario in TOGAF?

A business process, application, or set of applications

The business and technology environment

The desired outcome of proper execution

The people and computing components who execute the scenario

The underlying business vision

Which of the following correctly defines the Organisation category in the Architecture Content Framework?

Location, Actor, Role, and Organisation

Actor, Location and Structure

Actor, Location, Role and Capabilities

Organisation, Location and Capabilities

Requirements, Actor and Function

TOGAF defines four iteration cycles around the ADM phases. Which of the following answers correctly defines these four cycles?

Architecture Context, Architecture Definition, Transition Planning and Architecture Requirements Management

Architecture Definition, Architecture Delivery, Architecture Planning and Architecture Governance

Architecture Context, Architecture Definition, Transition Planning and Architecture Governance

Architecture Scope, Architecture Design, Transition Planning and Architecture Governance

Architecture Context, Architecture Definition, Architecture Planning and Architecture Requirements Management

‘All the features in the architecture specification are implemented in accordance with the specification, but some more features are implemented that are not in accordance with it.’ This text describes which level of architecture compliance?

Compliant

Irrelevant

Non-conformant

Consistent

Conformant

Which of these is not the characteristic of a building block?

It may be a subassembly of other building blocks

Ideally, a building block is re-usable and replaceable, and well specified with stable interfaces

It may specify implementation details

It may be assembled from other building blocks

It considers implementation and usage, and evolves to exploit technology and standards

Which one of the following is documented in TOGAF Part VII as a guideline for how to establish an Enterprise Architecture Capability?

Populate the Enterprise Continuum

Use the Architecture Development Method

Populate the Architecture Repository

Use the Implementation Governance Phase

Develop an Architecture Roadmap

Which of the following is defined as the risk categorization after the implementation of mitigating actions?

Strategic Level of Risk

Initial Level of Risk

Actual Level of Risk

Residual Level of Risk

In which ADM phase are the business principles, business goals and strategic drivers validated?

Preliminary Phase

Phase H, Architecture Change Management

Phase B, Business Architecture

Requirements Management Phase

Preliminary Phase

What kinds of architecture does TOGAF deal with?

Technology, application, integration and business

Application, data, infrastructure and business

Business, information, technology and application

Functional, data, technology and business

Technology, data, application and business

Complete the sentence: All of the following are part of the approach to the Preliminary Phase, except ____________

identifying key drivers and elements in the organizational context

defining the requirements for architecture work

defining the framework to be used

defining the enterprise

Which of the following is not a reason to use an Enterprise Architecture Framework in the context of TOGAF?

It will make certain that the architecture selected allows for future growth in response to the needs of the business

It will speed up and simplify architecture development

It will ensure more complete coverage of the designed solution

Its use may be mandated by federal agencies

It will ensure compliance and protect the interest of stakeholders

According to TOGAF, which of the following best describes why an Architecture Board should be established?

To oversee the implementation of the governance strategy

To ensure that new systems are introduced in a managed change process

To conduct source code design reviews

To facilitate the adoption of advanced technologies

To conduct performance appraisals on the enterprise architecture team
