Abstract
A single meta-model can include metadata defining a business scenario landscape that includes business scenarios accessible to members of an organization that are supported by a business software architecture. The metadata can include business process definitions and relationships between business processes. A user interface can present first, second, and/or third visualization layers based on the metadata. The first visualization layer can include first user interface elements forming a business scenario landscape map showing business scenarios and at least one relationship between the business scenarios. The second visualization layer can include second user interface elements displayed in a navigation pane concurrently with a work pane. The second user interface elements can represent a linear sequence of second business processes of a business scenario while the work pane can include additional user interface elements corresponding to functionality provided by the business software architecture relating to a currently selected business process.
