"The architecture of information systems in complex organisations is increasingly becoming platform-based, creating ecosystems of platforms in which several contributors exist to benefit and complement. As such systems become complex, it is necessary to think about the evolutionary dynamics necessary to ensure continued survival and success of the architecture that holds them in place. Of specific interest are three perspectives to IS architecture, its design, governance and context. The
...
premise of this paper is that adaptive evolution of information systems (IS) architecture in complex ecosystems has the necessary attributes to cope with evolutionary dynamics existing in its design, governance and context. The paper presents a theoretical perspective on how the rapidly changing, complex, uncertain and disruptive ecosystem environment in which IS architectural ecosystems are increasingly existing can adaptively evolve. It contributes to theoretical thinking about adaptive evolution in increasingly unstable, volatile and complex IS ecosystems. As it centres on IS architecture, the paper is directly addresses the IS artefact often skirted treated as a black box."
