Architectural Elements for Breaking Boundaries

Dr. Mark W. Maier
Distinguished Engineer
The Aerospace Corporation

What would an architecture that achieved "boundaryless information flow" consist of?

Following the widely accepted notions of what architecture is, we should be able to identify the fundamental elements that would make up a boundaryless system, and the rules of their composition. By starting with the least-boundaried system we know, The Internet, and examining its components and its rules of evolution, we can extract useful lessons for future systems, and can better scope enterprise architecting efforts that have boundaryless flow as their goal.
