Software architecture has become an increasingly important research topic in recent years. Concurrently much more attention has been paid to methods of evaluating non functional attributes of these architectures. However, in current architectural description languages (ADLs) based on a formal and abstract model of system behavior, there is a notable lack of support for representing and reasoning about...
Internet-scale applications require scalability thatpeer-to-peer (P2P) architectures provide. Traditional softwareengineering processes start with requirements and move onto architectures, software design, implementation, and testing. Choosing a P2P architecture, however, has significant constraints on the requirements of a given software engineeringprocess in terms of security, reliability and performance...
Modern computer systems for distributed service computing become highly complex and difficult to manage. A self-adaptive approach that integrates monitoring, analyzing, and actuation functionalities has the potential to accommodate to a dynamically changing environment. The main objective of this paper is to develop an architecture-based self-adaptive framework to improve performance and resource...
In the first part of this article, the author analyzed some common software architecture mistakes. In this article, the author discussed and explored the three mistakes that most architects know all too well. The author and his architect colleague Klaus Marquardt named these mistakes as if they were diseases: featuritis, flexibilitis, and performitis.
A growing number of networked applications is implemented on increasingly complex automotive platforms with several bus standards and gateways. Together, they challenge the automotive design process. Recent automotive software standards, in particular AUTOSAR that defines a network runtime environment on top of the existing automotive standards, are intended to improve portability and interoperability...
