Enterprise asset management (EAM) consists of asset register, work order management, inventory and procurement functions in an integrated business software package.

Enterprise architecture (EA) assurance is the process whose ultimate goal is to ensure that the agreed-on standards and principles created during the architecture creation process are realized and adhered to. Although EA assurance is often confused with or used synonymously with EA governance, it is, in fact, a subset, and it is conducted during the architecture realization.
Industry:Technology
Enterprise architecture (EA) is a discipline for proactively and holistically leading enterprise responses to disruptive forces by identifying and analyzing the execution of change toward desired business vision and outcomes. EA delivers value by presenting business and IT leaders with signature-ready recommendations for adjusting policies and projects to achieve target business outcomes that capitalize on relevant business disruptions. EA is used to steer decision making toward the evolution of the future state architecture.

Enterprise applications are designed to integrate computer systems that run all phases of an enterprise’s operations to facilitate cooperation and coordination of work across the enterprise. The intent is to integrate core business processes (e.g., sales, accounting, finance, human resources, inventory and manufacturing). The ideal enterprise system could control all major business processes in real time via a single software architecture on a client/server platform. Enterprise software is expanding its scope to link the enterprise with suppliers, business partners and customers.
Industry:Technology
Enterprise application software includes content, communication, and collaboration software; CRM software; digital and content creation software, ERP software; office suites; project and portfolio management; and SCM software.

Enterprise application outsourcing (EAO) is a multiyear or annuity contract/relationship involving the purchase of ongoing application service for managing, enhancing and maintaining custom or packaged application software in the server/host or desktop platforms. Enterprise application outsourcing does not include applications services sold as discrete, project-based services or staff augmentation services. In addition to application management services, application outsourcing isolates the services specifically delivered in a longer-term contract in support of the life cycle of applications such as consulting/advisory services, AD, integration, deployment and support services. Help desk services are limited to user support for enterprise applications. Services may be provided at the client site or off-site. IT assets may be owned by the client, the ESP or a third party. Contracts may include the transfer of client employees, IT assets and facilities to the ESP.

As mobile application development (AD) and Web development mature, designers will be called on to move beyond individual user interfaces (UIs) to address user experiences that transcend a single device. One example is a shopping application that interacts with a consumer at home on their PC, in transit on a mobile device and in a store at a kiosk. Gartner refers to the tools and techniques that have been developed to design these ensemble interactions as ensemble programming.
Industry:Technology
Ensemble interactions describe the syncing of a user’s multiple devices to support the completion of a task in an optimal manner. This was first demonstrated in video calls, in which the calls shifted automatically from a mobile handheld device to a large-screen TV as the user walked into a room and used gesture controls to “throw” a video from a mobile device to a larger monitor. As the complexity of ensemble interactions grows with the number of smart networked equipment, support for multitasking and collaborative activity will ensue.

Enhanced observed time difference (E-OTD) measures the time differences of arrival of a signal from three base stations, and can be implemented without changing the network.
