The paper deals with Knowledge-based Information Systems (IS) engineering. The Enterprise management functions, processes and their interactions are considered as the major components of the domain knowledge. This is the peculiarity of this approach to Enterprise modelling for IS engineering. The resulting framework for Enterprise modelling and Knowledge-based IS engineering – Enterprise meta-model (EMM) – is developed and presented in this paper. The architecture of the advanced CASE system is also discussed in this paper.
