This presentation defines big data and discusses the key considerations in planning, and implementing a big data supporting database management system (DBMS)
This document provides guidance on integrating IT security and IT Investment Management processes. Applying funding towards high-priority security investments supports the objective of maintaining appropriate security controls, both at the enterprise-wide and system level, commensurate with levels of risk and data sensitivity. This paper introduces common criteria against which managers can prioritize security activities to ensure that corrective actions are incorporated into the capital planning process to deliver maximum security in a cost-effective manner.

This document provides guidance on how an organization, through the use of metrics, identifies the adequacy of in-place security controls, policies, and procedures. It provides an approach to help management decide where to invest in additional security protection resources or identify and evaluate nonproductive controls. It explains the metric development and implementation process and how it can also be used to adequately justify security control investments. The results of an effective metric program can provide useful data for directing the allocation of information security resources and should simplify the preparation of performance-related reports.

This presentation introduces architecture driven modernization approach of the Object Management Group (OMG), discusses the benefits in using it, connects it to model driven architecture (MDA), presents various implementation scenarios for architecture driven modernization, and illustrates the concepts with a case study.
This academic thesis proposes a model driven approach to modernizing legacy information systems. The legacy system is first modeled and then this model is converted to a model driven system using model driven engineering i.e. a model is constructed and an MDE tool is used to generate the executable transformation code for it.
