: One of the tools for the architectural advent form is the structure, while architecture and structures, particularly in our sociable Iran, are separated from each other. Most successful buildings have dominating designers who are proficient in structural issues and have a comprehension of the structural system's behavior. The extent of attention to the structure of the building will inevitabl...

The goal of this paper is to demonstrate that an important, naturally-occurring, and disciplined form of reflection in software systems is readily expressible at the architectural level by using a new architectural operator (connector) called Engage. We begin by extending a simple data-flow architectural description language with this operator. We illustrate the expressive power of Engage by us...

An enterprise federated architecture intends to mirror the structure of the organisation, aiming to provide better support for both new and legacy applications within a distributed environment and facilitating data exchange between applications to support information integration. Under this architectural form, the organisation’s information systems are separated out into autonomous co-operating...

The conceptual modelling of software architectures is of central importance for the quality of a software system. A rich modelling language is required to integrate the different aspects of architecture modelling, such as architectural styles, structural and behavioural modelling, into a coherent framework. Architectural styles are often neglected in software architectures. We propose an ontolo...

When a specific building is examined and analysed for its architectural merits, it is the visible, superficial aspects, which are considered, for example: aesthetics, function, spatial relationships, and landscape. One of the most important invisible factors that should be considered in the design process is the safety of buildings against natural hazards, particularly against earthquakes. Whil...
