Software architecture is one of the most fundamental products in the process of software development in the areas of behavioral or non- behavioral features like availability or transformability change. There are different ways to evaluate software architecture one of which is the creation of application model. An executable model of software architecture is an official description of architectu...

At a fast pace, applications of quantum algorithms are being built by industrial and academic users to gain experiences with this quickly evolving technology. The more these endeavours shifting from an experimental stage towards solving real practical problems, it becomes clear that systematic approach is needed develop the corresponding applications. This need based on fact software involves c...

The design of the architecture of a software is a crucial step in the development process. The architecture defines the components of the software and the functions and responsibilities of each component. Also, the architecture determines the maintainability of the software, and the techniques that are used in the implementation. Software architecture visualizations support the architect when s...

The software architecture [SA] has received increasing attention as an important subfield of software engineering. The Software Architecture is the foundation for building any software and it is deciding the quality of software. Evaluating Software Architecture is a key part in software development. This paper intends to increase the consistency of software architecture evaluation process to a ...

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 ...

• implementation techniques to assure such non-functional properties. In our opinion, there are at least three issues related to reflection: • what system aspects (such as structure or behaviour) are to be represented and operated upon, • how a system can reflect upon its own aspects, and • when a system reflects upon itself (e.g., design time, compile time, installation time, start-up time, or...

There is a revival of interest in the software product after several years of intense focus by the software engineering community on the software process. Similarly, within the software design community, there is a revival of interest in higher levels of design (e.g. software architecture) after several years of intense focus on object-oriented (OO) design methodologies (e.g. identifying object...
