Abou Al Hassan ibn Ali ibn Muhammad al-Qalasadi (a.k.a. Al-Qalsadi, Al-Qalasadi, or Al-Kalsadi), born on 1412,Bastah, (north of Granada) AlAndalous, and dead on 1486, Béja, Ifriqiya (Tunisia), expert in Algebra, Arithmetics,and Astronomy. Alqualsadi has abreviated variable names to symbols (equations algorithms become shorter &easier), and unknown X was born : ش (abbreviation of shay شي ), translated later to italian as « causa » and thenwill be abreviated to X. He has also abstracted and symbolised arithmetic operations, and applied thissymbolisation to formalise and resolve algebric equations algorithms (polynomial, diophantine).

EA has been firstly thought to address two problems (in 1987) :- System complexity : organisations were spending enormous budgets in IT

- Poor business alignement : organisations were finding it more difficult tokeep IT systems aligned with business models. Basically enterprises are lookingfor more agility, high profils, lower risk, more satisfied senior management, andmore cost and less value problem recognised in 1987, but they have reached acrisis point.
