Abstract. To formally describe architectures of software systems, specific languages called Architecture Description Languages (ADLs) have been developed by academic institutions a...
Complex software systems require expressive notations for representing their software architectures. Two competing paths have emerged. One is to use a specialized notation for arc...
The creation and validation of product line software architectures are inherently more complex than those of software architectures for single systems. This paper compares a proces...
Over the past decade software architecture has received increasing attention as an important subfield of software engineering. During that time there has been considerable progres...
Software architecture styles for developing multiuser applications are usually defined at a conceptual level, abstracting such low-level issues of distributed implementation as co...

With today's ever increasing demands on software, developers must produce software that can be changed without the risk of degrading the software architecture. Degraded softw...
In order to ensure the quality of their software development process, companies incorporate best practices from recognized repositories or from their own experiences. These best pr...
Existence of crosscutting concerns in software requirements often intensifies complexity of software development. Modeling and analysis of these concerns at software architecture ...
Crowd simulations require both rendering visually plausible images and managing the behavior of autonomous agents. Therefore, these applications need an efficient design that allo...
