The perception of the architectural acoustic environment both architects and non-architects is important. Through interviews with non-architects, theoretical frameworks on for two groups are created in present study. entire process summarised into four steps groups: attitude towards building, design, factors influencing interpretation, outcome environment. Some obvious differences between were ...

While security has long been a significant issue in military systems, the spread of the internet has stimulated a growing interest in, and increasing demand for, secure systems. Understanding how architects manage security requirements in practice is a necessary first step in providing repeatable processes using effective techniques, methods and architectural structures. We present the results ...

In cloud computing, software applications are potentially able to use only the computing resources that are minimally needed for performant operation. Because cloud providers provision such resources on a pay-per-use basis, software architects are interested in analyzing the operational costs that accrue for such applications, allowing architects to optimize for cost-efficiency. Current analysi...

Software architecture provides the high-level design of software systems with the most critical decisions. The source code of a system has to conform to the architectural decisions to guarantee the systems’ success in terms of quality properties. Therefore, architects have to continuously ensure that architecture decisions are implemented correctly to prevent architecture erosion. This is the m...
