Top-down or Bottom-up Roles Modeling: Which Approach fits best?

Combined Session
Wednesday, May 09, 2007 16:30—17:30

It is commonly accepted that enterprises are urged to take a more rigorous approach to modeling the relationship of individual to the organization, aka role modeling.

Less agreement can be found on the question which path to take best to achieve this goal. Should we choose a stepwise or a big bang approach, model system wise, business process by business process oder enterprise wide and finally should we model top down form business processes to elementary business functions to actors an their interactions with resources?. Or better take the bottom-up path of constructing roles from existing privileges, aggregating and refining them step by step to be sure to match with the enterprises real existing requirements?

The expert panel will discuss these questions and will come up with suggestions and recommendations.
