Abstract. To formally describe architectures of software systems, specific languages called Architecture Description Languages (ADLs) have been developed by academic institutions a...
Software architectural design has an enormous effect on downstream software artifacts. Decomposition of functions for the final system is one of the critical steps in software arch...
Physics, biology, and medicine have well-refined public explanations of their research processes. Even in simplified form, these provide guidance about what counts as "good re...
Architectural description languages are a useful tool for modeling complex systems at a high level of abstraction. If based on formal methods, they can also serve for enabling the...
