Evaluating software architectures for real-time systems

  • Published:
Annals of Software Engineering

Abstract

In this paper we describe a process for evaluating the architectures of large, complex software-intensive systems. This process involves both social and technical aspects. The social aspects deal with planning and running an evaluation. The technical aspects concentrate on the representation of architectural information, standard questions, analyses, and quality attribute characterizations. We then take the generic notion of architectural evaluation, and discuss some techniques for applying this technique to the domain of real-time systems.
