Abstract Business Process Architecture (BPA) and Enterprise Architecture (EA) require integration to serve as effective management tools. Prior literature reviews have not focused on EA-BPA integration. This work aims to fill this gap by conducting a literature review analyzing and comparing how EA approaches include and consider BPAs. We found most related research that analyzed EA approaches recognize the need of integrating business processes with multiple organizational aspects but do not provide a standalone BPA viewpoint nor offer specific integration guidelines. The article concludes by identifying criteria for adopting an EA approach and highlighting research gaps that suggest the EA-BPA integration field remains largely unexplored and open to further inquiry.

企业架构方法中业务流程架构的集成：文献综述

摘要 业务流程架构 (BPA) 和企业架构 (EA) 需要集成才能作为有效的管理工具。先前的文献综述并未关注 EA-BPA 集成。这项工作旨在通过进行文献综述分析和比较 EA 方法如何包括和考虑 BPA 来填补这一空白。我们发现大多数分析 EA 方法的相关研究都认识到需要将业务流程与多个组织方面进行集成，但没有提供独立的 BPA 观点，也没有提供特定的集成指南。文章最后确定了采用 EA 方法的标准，并强调了表明 EA-BPA 集成领域在很大程度上仍未被探索并接受进一步调查的研究差距。
