Software Engineering 朱建凯 2009 Spring Architectural Design Control styles Are concerned with the control flow between sub-systems. Distinct from the system decomposition model. Centralised control One sub-system has overall responsibility for control and starts and stops other sub-systems. Event-based control Each sub-system can respond to externally generated events from other sub-systems or the system’s environment. Centralised control A control sub-system takes responsibility for managing the execution of other sub-systems. Call-return model Top-down subroutine model where control starts at the top of a subroutine hierarchy and moves downwards. Applicable to sequential systems. Manager model Applicable to concurrent systems. One system component controls the stopping, starting and coordination of other system processes. Can be implemented in sequential systems as a case statement. Call-return model Real-time system control Event-driven systems Driven by externally generated events where the timing of the event is outwith the control of the sub-systems which process the event. Two principal event-driven models Broadcast models. An event is broadcast to all sub-systems. Any sub-system which can handle the event may do so; Interrupt-driven models. Used in real-time systems where interrupts are detected by an interrupt handler and passed to some other component for processing. Other event driven models include spreadsheets and production systems. Broadcast model Effective in integrating sub-systems on different computers in a network. Sub-systems register an interest in specific events. When these occur, control is transferred to the sub-system which can handle the event. Control policy is not embedded in the event and message handler. Sub-systems decide on events of interest to them. However, sub-systems don’t know if or when an event will be handled. Selective broadcasting Interrupt-driven systems Used in real-time systems where fast response to an event is essent
