Certain design fragments in software architectures can have a negative impact on system maintainability. In this paper, we introduce the concept of architectural “bad smells,”...

Most previously published case studies in architecture recovery have been performed on statically linked software systems. Due to the increase in use of middleware technologies, s...
As the properties of components have gradually become clearer, attention has started to turn to the architectural issues which govern their interaction and composition. In this pa...
The traditional computational devices and models, such as the von Neumann architecture or the Turing machine, are strongly influenced by concepts of central control and perfectio...
Abstract. Software architecture and software architecture practices become increasingly important for information systems since they enable reasoning on the design of the system. T...
