We show how the formal description language LOTOS can be used to de ne software architectures and how patterns over LOTOS can serve to characterize architectural styles. We charact...
We argue that it is useful to study classes of Multi-Agent System (MAS) architectures, corresponding to architectural styles in addition to particular tures. In this work we focus ...

Software patterns are generic solutions to recurring problems. They are represented as a triplet (problem, context, solution). Several kinds of software patterns were identified, ...
As the design of software architectures emerges as a discipline within software engineering, it will become increasingly important to support architectural description and analysi...
In this paper, we present a pattern-based software development method that preserves usability and security quality characteristics using a role-driven mapping of requirements anal...
