Software architecture

Más información sobre el libro

Software architecture has become a vital subdiscipline of software engineering, encompassing a diverse array of languages, styles, models, tools, and processes. Its significance in engineering software-intensive applications is increasingly recognized, especially with the rise of component-based and service-oriented architectures, which are essential for designing, developing, and evolving software systems. The European Conference on Software Architecture (ECSA) stands as the leading European conference in this domain, addressing all aspects of software and service engineering architecture. Building on a successful series of workshops held in the UK, Italy, and France, ECSA has developed into a comprehensive conference series, with its inaugural event in 2007 in Madrid. This conference serves as an international platform for researchers and practitioners from both academia and industry to showcase innovative research and engage in discussions on various software architecture topics. Key areas of focus include formalisms, technologies, and processes for describing, verifying, validating, transforming, building, and evolving software systems, particularly those based on component-based and service-oriented architectures. Topics explored encompass architecture modeling, analysis, transformation, quality attributes, model-driven engineering, and architecture-based support for developing and adapting systems.
