It is difficult for software professionals to find all the architectural knowledge they need from architecture documentation, and this results in wasted time and mistakes in projects. This is the case even when architecture documentation is indexed by an ontology and stored in a semantic wiki. We present a prototype tool called AK-Finder which queries architectural knowledge stored in a semantic wiki...
Software architecture (SA) documentation provides a blueprint of a software-intensive system for the communication between stakeholders about the high-level design of the system. In open source software (OSS) development, a lack of SA documentation may hinder the use and further development of OSS, but how much "architecture" documentation is enough and appropriate is largely dependent on...
A common approach to software architecture documentation in industry projects is the use of file-based documents. This approach offers a single-dimensional perspective on the architectural knowledge contained. Knowledge retrieval from file-based architecture documentation is efficient if the perspective chosen fits the needs of the readers, it is less so if the perspective does not match the needs...
The basic format in which software requirements and architecture designs are documented is essentially file-based, and it has persisted for decades. Current indexing methods used in file-based documentation are not conducive to retrieving software knowledge. We propose to index software documents with a suitable lightweight ontology to improve the retrieval and traceability of software knowledge....
In large-scale collaborative software projects, thousands of requirements with complex interdependencies and different granularity spreading in different levels are elicited, documented, and evolved during the project lifecycle. Non-technical stakeholders involved in requirements engineering activities rarely apply formal techniques; therefore it is infeasible to automatically detect problems in requirements...
