| Abstract |
|
Architectural knowledge consists of architecture
design as well as the design decisions, assumptions,
context, and other factors that together determine why
a particular solution is the way it is. Except for the
architecture design part, most of the architectural
knowledge usually remains hidden, tacit in the heads of
the architects. We conjecture that an explicit representation
of architectural knowledge is helpful for building
and evolving systems. If we had a repository of architectural
knowledge for a system, what would it ideally
contain, how would we build it, and exploit it in practice?
In this paper we describe a use case model for an
architectural knowledge system.
