Towards Antifragile Software Architectures

Towards Formalized Software Architectures

An important goal in software engineering is to describe complex software systems at an architectural level of abstraction. While there are many useful architectural paradigms (pipes, blackboards, etc.) they are typically understood only idiomatically and applied in an ad hoc fashion. We show how a formal model allows us to say precisely what we mean by a software architecture, explore its prop...

Towards Antifragile Software: Knowledge-driven Perturbation of Software Systems with Active Learning

Towards Fault-tolerant Software Architectures

“Sofmare engineering has produced no ejfective methods to eradicate latent sofmare faults. ” This sentence is, of course, a stereotype, but it is as true as a stereotype can get. And yet, it begs some questions. If it is not possible to construct a large software system without residual faults, is it at least possible to construct it to degrade gracefttllly cy and when U latent fault is encount...

Towards standardization of adaptable software architectures

Software architecture has been a subject of immense interest for both industry and academia alike recently. Numerous papers have appeared in various conferences highlighting the importance of the architecture for developing usable, reliable, secure and adaptable software systems; books related to architectures have been published and conferences dedicated to software architectures (for example,...

Towards Generic Implementation of Software Architectures

The software architecture is the structure or the set of structures of the system, which comprise software elements, externally visible properties of those elements and the relationship amongst them. Very important role in developing of software architecture has its modeling. Based on the model, the properties of modeled system can be analyzed, to obtain required behavior. The essence of our id...
