Early assessment of the non-functional properties of component compositions is one of the hottest issues in component-based architecting. We describe a method for evaluating the emergent static properties of an architecture, given the features of its constituents. The estimation framework is based on composition rules and the specification of the static properties of the components by means of ...

Section 2 of this paper deals with basic architectural concepts and design decisions that need to be modelled, as well as modeling views, viewpoints, and visualizations. Section 3 covers various modeling notations: natural language (3.1); informal graphical styles (3.2); Unified Modeling Language (3.3); early Architecture Description Languages (3.4) – Darwin (3.4.1), Rapide (3.4.2), and Wright ...
