Software and Systems Architecture in Action

This book explores practices that can be helpful in the development of architectures of large-scale systems in which software is a major component. Examining the synergies that exist between software and systems engineering, it details an approach to architecture design that is driven from systemic quality attributes determined from both the business and technical goals of the system. This approach utilizes analytically derived patterns and tactics for quality attributes that inform the architect's design choices and help shape the architecture of a given system.

Table des matières

Communicating the Architecture. Architecture and Detailed Design. Role of Architecture in Managing Structural Complexity.

A propos de l'auteur

Raghvinder (Raghu) Sangwan is an associate professor of software engineering at Pennsylvania State University. His work involves design and development of software systems, their architecture, and automatic and semiautomatic approaches to assess their design and code quality. He has published several papers in these areas. Prior to joining the Pennsylvania State University, Raghu was a software architect at Siemens, where he worked on large-scale systems in the domains of health care, automation, transportation, and mining; many of these systems were developed by teams geographically distributed around the world. This experience resulted in his coauthoring the Global Software Development Handbook and co-organizing the first International Conference on Global Software Engineering (ICGSE 2006), sponsored by the Institute for Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). He also holds a visiting scientist appointment at the Software Engineering Institute at Carnegie Mellon University. He received his PhD in computer and information sciences from Temple University and is a senior member of IEEE and the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM).
