Positioning the CAFCR Method in the World

abstract This chapter positions the CAFCR architecting methods realtive to other methods. The other methods originate in software architecting, system architecting and system engineering, and more general systems science. Some background is given of the IEEE~1471 standard that has proven to be to be a useful fundament for the CAFCR method.
