Features of Architecture Description Languages

چکیده
The characteristic approach in mature engineering disciplines (e.g. civil and chemical engineering) is to build systems (e.g., buildings or chemical plants) from known solutions such as proven designs and existing components [Shaw90,D’Ippolito89]]. Engineers in mature disciplines also put great emphasis on proactively avoiding costly problems by evaluating the system before it is built [Liu87]. Models of the system’s architecture are important tools for applying known solutions and doing early evaluation in mature engineering disciplines. In software engineering, the corollary is modelling the software architecture.

The Role of Algorithmic Applications in the Development of Architectural Forms (Case Study:Nine High-Rise Buildings)
The process of developing architectural forms has greatly been changed by advances in digital technology, especially in design tools and applications. In recent years, the advent of graphical scripting languages in the design process has profoundly affected 3D modeling. Scripting languages help develop algorithms and geometrical grammar of shapes based on their constituent parameters. This stud...
متن کاملA Survey of Architecture Description Languages
In the last few years, a considerable number of architecture description languages (ADLs) have been proposed for describing and reasoning about software architectures. In this work, we classify and compare several ADLs placing emphasis on their features for formal modelling and analysis.
متن کاملArchitectural Description Languages and their Role in Component Based Design
Architecture description languages (ADLs) are widely used to describe system architectures. Bass et. al. (1988) describe the main features of these languages. Components and connectors are the main elements of ADLs and include rules and guidelines for well formed architectures. The output of the architecture description process is the system architecture documents. This consists of a number of ...
متن کاملArchitecture description languages for programmable embedded systems
Embedded systems present a tremendous opportunity to customise designs by exploiting the application behaviour. Shrinking time-to-market, coupled with short product lifetimes, create a critical need for rapid exploration and evaluation of candidate architectures. Architecture description languages (ADL) enable exploration of programmable architectures for a given set of application programs und...
متن کاملA novel datatype architecture support for programming languages
In programmers point of view, Datatypes in programming language level have a simple description but inside hardware, huge machine codes are responsible to describe type features. Datatype architecture design is a novel approach to match programming features along with hardware design. In this paper a novel Data type-Based Code Reducer (TYPELINE) architecture is proposed and implemented accordin...
