Architectural Reflection: Concepts, Design, and Evaluation
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper proposes a novel reflective approach, orthogonal to the classic computational approach, whereby a system performs computation on its software architecture instead of individual components. The approach supports system’s self-management activities such as dynamic reconfiguration to be realized in a systematic and conceptually clean way and added to existing systems without modifying the system itself. The parallelism between such architectural reflection and classic reflection is discussed, as well as the transposition of classic reflective concepts in the architectural domain.

متن کاملArchitectural Reflection: Realising Software Architectures via Reflective Activities
Architectural reflection is the computation performed by a software system about its own software architecture. Building on previous research and on practical experience in industrial projects, in this paper we expand the approach and show a practical (albeit very simple) example of application of architectural reflection. The example shows how one can express, thanks to reflection, both functi...
