Purpose
The ASL is intended to support Application Management by providing tools. Two main categories of aids are defined:
- Descriptions of the processes for Application Management. Plus the use of best-practises
- Standard terminology, avoiding the pitfall of talking about different topics while using the same words.
The goal of ASL is to assist in the professionalisation of Application Management.

Famous quotes containing the word purpose:
“I want that glib and oily art
To speak and purpose not, since what I well intend,
Ill dot before I speak.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
“Let our hearts, as subtle masters do,
Stir up their servants to an act of rage
And after seem to chide em. This shall make
Our purpose necessary, and not envious;
Which so appearing to the common eyes,
We shall be called purgers, not murderers.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
“Respect is not fear and awe; it...[is]the ability to see a person as he is, to be aware of his unique individuality. Respect, thus, implies the absence of exploitation. I want the loved person to grow and unfold for his own sake, and in his own ways, and not for the purpose of serving me.”
—Erich Fromm (20th century)
