Description
Offering a practical way to generate effective and efficient project-specific system architecture engineering methods, this volume addresses the entire range of systems architecture including hardware, software, subsystems, and systems of systems. It defines a set of architectural roles and teams and provides a repository of reusable architectural engineering process components to develop high-quality system architectures. It examines a cohesive set of tailorable tasks and components steps for producing associated architectural work products and establishes a recommended set of industry best practices for engineering the architecture of software-intensive systems.
