This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 15th International Conference on Software Architecture, ECSA 2021, held in Sweden, in September 2021. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the conference was held virtually.
For the Research Track, 11 full papers, presented together with 5 short papers, were carefully reviewed and selected from 58 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections as follows: architectures for reconfigurable and self-adaptive systems; machine learning for software architecture; architectural knowledge, decisions, and rationale; architecting for quality attributes; architecture-centric source code analysis; and experiences and learnings from industrial case studies.
