ArchiMate and Other Standards

ArchiMate is not an isolated language. Its relationship with existing modelling standards such as UML and BPMN is important. Several concepts in the language have been derived from these standards, and ArchiMate is often used in conjunction with methods like TOGAF. The following documents provide you with more background on this.
