TOGAF 9 Combined Part 1 and Part 2 — Question 243

Which of the following does TOGAF describe as "the structure of components, their inter-relationships, and the principles guiding their design and evolution over time"?

Answer options

• A. View
• B. Artifact
• C. Model
• D. Deliverable
• E. Architecture

Correct answer: E

Explanation

The correct answer is E, as TOGAF specifically defines architecture in this manner. The other options, while related to the components of architecture, do not encapsulate the complete idea of structure, inter-relationships, and guiding principles as architecture does.
