To define the elements that constitute the core of TOGAF Version 8, for reference in certification materials.
The core of TOGAF Version 8 consists of the following elements, each of which is uniquely numbered for reference in certification materials.
1. The sequence of activities represented by the Architecture Development Method (ADM)
2. The deliverables or "information sets" used or generated during the ADM cycle
3. The Foundation Architecture
5. The relationship of TOGAF to other architectures and architecture frameworks
The Architecture Development Method Core Process comprises the following Phases of the ADM, including their constituent Steps and Activities.
Preliminary Phase: Framework and Principles
Phase A: Architecture Vision
Phase B: Business Architecture
Phase C: Information Systems Architecture
Phase D: Technical Architecture
Phase E: Opportunities and Solutions
Phase F: Migration Planning
