Software Architecture: Implications for Computer Science Research
نویسنده
چکیده
Software architecture has the potential to significantly shift software development from dealing with fine grained (program level) constructs to a higher level emphasis. This position paper discusses some of the major computer science questions that require investigation to facilitate this shift. It focuses on three particular areas: semantics and languages, formal verification, and measurement and metrics. These areas are examined as part of the scientific basis on which progress in software architecture relies. In each area, high level challenges are identified and potential research directions are discussed.

Proper decisions play a crucial role in any software architecture design process. An important decision of design stage is the selection of a suitable software architecture style. Lack of investigation on the quantitative impact of architecture styles on software quality attributes is the main problem in using such styles. Consequently, the use of architecture styles in designing is based on th...
