We present a methodology and algorithms for automatic refinement from a given design specification to an architecture model based on decisions in architecture exploration. An arch...
Model-driven Architecture (MDA) is a software architecture framework proposed by the Object Management Group OMG. MDA emphasises the importance of modelling in the architectural de...
Enterprise Architecture (EA) requires modeling enterprises across multiple levels (from markets down to IT systems). Providing tool support for such models is a challenge (e.g. mo...
Based on the FOCUS theory of distributed systems (see [Broy, Stølen 01]) that are composed of interacting components we introduce a formal model of services and layered architectu...
Abstract. This paper describes a parallel model for a distributed memory architecture of a non traditional evolutionary computation method, which integrates constraint propagation ...
