About this title

Synopsis

A software system is complex that it comprises multiple views such as strategy/version n, strategy/version n+1, concept, analysis, design, implementation, structure, behavior and input/output data views. Accordingly, a software system is defined as a set of interacting components forming an integrated whole of that system’s multiple views.Since structure and behavior views are the two most prominent ones among multiple views, integrating the structure and behavior views is a method for integrating multiple views of a software system. In other words, structure-behavior coalescence (SBC) is a single model (model singularity) approach which results in the integration of multiple views. Therefore, it is concluded that the SBC architecture is so proper to model the multiple views of a software system.In this book, we use the SBC architecture description language (SBC-ADL) to describe and represent the software architecture of the airline reservation system. An architecture description language is a special kind of system model used in defining the architecture of a software system. SBC-ADL uses six fundamental diagrams to formally grasp the essence of a software system and its details at the same time. These diagrams are: a) architecture hierarchy diagram, b) framework diagram, c) component operation diagram, d) component connection diagram, e) structure-behavior coalescence diagram and f) interaction flow diagram.Software architecture is on the rise. Through this book’s introduction and elaboration of the software architecture of the airline reservation system (ARS), all readers will clearly understand how SBC-ADL can help architects effectively perform architecting in order to effectively construct the fruitful software architecture.
