definition of architecture

چکیده
this paper seeks to investigate a new definition for architecture by unifying the three vitruvian principles of firmitas, utilities, and venustas via a phenomenological approach in the interpretation and analysis of their role in defining architecture. the paper is composed in two main sections. the first section investigates the nature of architecture based on the mentioned principles, where architecture is interpreted and analyzed in terms of its “thingly,” “equipmental,” and “artistic” characters. while it seems that architecture could be in view of its “thingness” alone, or “equip mentality”, or “artless”, but each perspective reveals only a dimension of the nature of architecture. therefore, the second section of this paper focuses on unifying the vitruvian triad, attempting to define architecture from the single stance of “architecturality” the sphere from which architecture is seen as a way of disclosing the truth in the desired life of humans in an architectural work. in this definition, there is the simultaneous presence of thingness, equip mentality, and artless of architecture, thus establishing an integral unity between the principles of the vitruvian triad. thus, the three vitruvian principles come to unify in architecture which is defined as “the manifestation of truth of human desired life in the work of architecture.” this definition also allows us to assume three fundamental principles for architecture, “truth of human desired life”, “work of architecture” and “manifestation of truth”. these three principles are themselves, in fact, reflections of the three vitruvian principles.

متن کاملK-Maude Definition of Dynamic Software Architecture
One of the complex issues in developing architectural models of software systems is the capturing of architectures dynamics, i.e., systems for which composition of interacting components, changes at run time. In this paper, we argue that it is possible and valuable to provide a Dynamic Software Architecture Meta-model (DySAM) that accounts for interactions between architectural components and t...
متن کاملOn the Definition of Software System Architecture
Although several definitions of “software architecture” have been presented, none of them to date enable a reviewer confronted with a complex of diagrams and symbols to determine whether it is an architecture for a system or not. We present a definition of “software system architecture” which provides a set of criteria for making this determination. It is based on making the architectural ratio...
متن کاملAn Event-Based Architecture Definition Language
| This paper discusses general requirements for architecture deenition languages, and describes the syntax and semantics of the subset of the Rapide language that is designed to satisfy these requirements. Rapide is a concurrent event-based simulation language for deening and simulating the behavior of system architectures. Rapide is intended for modelling the architectures of concurrent and di...
