ADL Architectural description language (ADL) provides a semantics and syntax for describing a software architecture Provide the designer with the ability to: decompose architectural components compose individual components into larger architectural blocks and represent interfaces (connection mechanisms) between components. * An Architectural Design Method * Deriving Program Architecture * Partitioning the Architecture “horizontal” and “vertical” partitioning are required * Horizontal Partitioning define separate branches of the module hierarchy for each major function use control modules to coordinate communication between functions * Vertical Partitioning: Factoring design so that decision making and work are stratified decision making modules should reside at the top of the architecture * Why Partitioned Architecture? results in software that is easier to test leads to software that is easier to maintain results in propagation of fewer side effects results in software that is easier to extend * Structured Design objective: to derive a program architecture that is partitioned approach: a DFD is mapped into a program architecture the PSPEC and STD are used to indicate the content of each module notation: structure chart * Structured Design objective: to derive a program architecture that is partitioned approach: a DFD is mapped into a program architecture the PSPEC and STD are used to indicate the content of each module notation: structure chart * Flow Characteristics * General Mapping Approach General Mapping Approach boundaries; for transaction flows, isolate the transaction center working from the boundary outward, map DFD transforms into corresponding modules add control modules as required refine the resultant program structure using effective modularity concepts * General Mapping Approach Isolate the transform center by specifying incoming and outgoing flow boundaries Perform first-level factoring.” The program architecture derived
