Integrating architecture description languages with a standard design method

摘要: Software architecture descriptions are high-level models of software systems. Some researchers have proposed special-purpose architectural notations that a great deal expressive power but not well integrated with common development methods. Others used mainstream methods accessible to developers, lack semantics needed for extensive analysis. We describe an approach combining the advantages these two ways modeling architectures. present examples extending UML, emerging standard design notation, use description languages, C2 and Wright. Our suggests practical strategy bringing into wider use, namely by incorporating substantial elements method.
