In information systems development and usage the correspondence between concepts used at the business level and data structures processed at the computer systems level is to be established and maintained. The complexity of this task depends on the enterprise and information systems architectures that underlie a particular information system as well as on dynamic properties of information systems environment. In cases of heterogeneous domain ontologies and complex enterprise and information systems architectures, the fractal approach to information systems design can support balanced change propagation from business domain to computer systems domain that, in turn, allows to define and maintain flexible information architecture that supports business goals and processes. Fractal approach allows applying various systems development methods at different administrative levels of the business organization and thus can accelerate the IS development process and change management during the systems maintenance.
