Towards Independent Software Architecture Review
نویسندگان
چکیده
Many software architecture evaluation methods, proposed by the research community, have a common problem of engaging the same architects to perform architecture design and evaluation. This violates the independence of quality assurance and hence may lead to biased evaluation, thereby resulting in inferior architectural design. In this paper, we analyze current approaches and issues to software architecture quality assurance. We propose seven conditions for architectural design quality assurance and discuss existing challenges towards independent software architecture design review.

A Meta-study of Architectural Design Processes in Post-disaster Housing Reconstruction in Iran
Background and objective Despite conducting numerous studies in the two areas of “architectural design process” and “post-disaster housing reconstruction” in recent years in Iran, limited studies have been conducted for the meta-study of these two areas. Therefore, to redefine the “post-disaster housing reconstruction” and strengthen the common theoretical foundations, the current study aims to...
متن کاملModel Driven Architecture ( MDA ) and Component - Based Software Development ( CBSD )
Two major approaches to achieve variability and extensibility in a product line are model-driven architecture (MDA, by OMG) [MDA] and component-based software engineering (CBSE). Within MDA, the re-usable skeletons of applications are referred to as Platform-Independent Models (PIMs). A PIM captures the architecture and the algorithmic issues that are independent of all platforms. It is transla...

Around the controversial subject of Seljuq architecture in Iran, the dominion of such a style in Islamic architecture, not only following the stereotype of "Razi Style"; which was proposed by Prinya, but also includes various irrelevant architectural axis. Further, considering various schools in Islamic architecture like Khurasani, Razi, Azari, and Isfahani, does not match the existence archite...
متن کاملAn Open Architecture Framework for the Integration of Virtual Prototyping Software Tools
The use of virtual prototyping tools typically results in products with lower costs, better quality, and shorter development cycles. However, there are many interface/ configuration problems that occur in the process of obtaining a design solution using the typical gamut of virtual prototyping tools. This paper presents the architecture, design, and implementation of a framework to support the ...
متن کاملTowards an Architecture Maintainability Maturity Model (AM3)
The maintainability of software systems is a crucial point in the software lifecycle. However, assessing the quality of the software’s architecture with respect to evolution is a challenging task. The evaluation of the maintainability of a system’s architecture is often made using scenario-based techniques. These techniques require a comprehensive anticipation of future adaptations of the syste...
