Architecture-driven quality requirements prioritization
2012
2012 First IEEE International Workshop on the Twin Peaks of Requirements and Architecture (TwinPeaks)
It helps requirements analysts and software architects to study the quality trade-offs of a software architecture, and use this information for requirements prioritization. ...
Quality requirements are main drivers for architectural decisions of software systems. ...
analysis (step 7) determines the objectives which are actually conflicting so that the DM need to make trade-off decisions. ...

Research Preview: Prioritizing Quality Requirements Based on Software Architecture Evaluation Feedback
[chapter]
2012
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
We propose to use automated design space exploration techniques to generate information about available trade-offs. ...
Context and motivation] Quality requirements are a main driver for architectural decisions of software systems. ...
Thus, to support our new process, we will investigate the new step of trade-off and dependency analysis based on design space exploration results as next steps in this research. ...

How the understanding of the effects of design decisions informs requirements engineering
2013
2013 2nd International Workshop on the Twin Peaks of Requirements and Architecture (TwinPeaks)
The contribution of this paper lies in the explicit discussion of the effects of design decisions on requirements engineering. ...
We define two types of design decisions and discuss their effect on requirements, and in particular on elicitation and prioritisation. ...
This can lead to the quantitative support of taking trade-off decisions (in particular, trade-off between costs and quality properties or of two antagonistic quality properties). ...

Dealing with uncertainty in early software architecture
2012
Proceedings of the ACM SIGSOFT 20th International Symposium on the Foundations of Software Engineering - FSE '12
It is not clear how the rectangles in Figure 1c can be transformed to a space where the trade-off analysis can be performed. ...
The key contribution of GuideArch is the ability to provide quantitative analysis of the trade-offs given such loose specifications. ...

Autonomous Operations for the Crew Exploration Vehicle — Trade Study Design Considerations
2005
AIP Conference Proceedings
Getting these trade-offs wrong can lead to unnecessary growth in mission cost and risk, and unnecessary decreases in the time the crew has available for core exploration tasks. ...
The decision of how to distribute control must be based on a complex trade-off between development and validation costs, operations costs, and reliability/risks. ...

Optimising multiple quality criteria of service-oriented software architectures
2009
Proceedings of the 1st international workshop on Quality of service-oriented software systems - QUASOSS '09
However, various degrees of freedom in building a software architecture span a large, discontinuous design space. ...
The found optimal architectural models can be used as an input for trade-off analyses and thus allow systematic engineering of high-quality software architectures. ...
Tradeoff analysis Based on the results of our approach, software architects can make well-informed trade-off decisions based on the available possible candidates. ...

Identifying "good" architectural design alternatives with multi-objective optimization strategies
2006
Proceeding of the 28th international conference on Software engineering - ICSE '06
Architecture trade-off analysis methods are appropriate techniques to evaluate design decisions and design alternatives with respect to conflicting quality requirements. ...
However, the identification of good design alternatives is a time consuming task, which is currently performed manually. ...
However, since the search space of architecture decision problems are often overwhelming; the benefit of using evolutionary algorithms as an input for decision making of an architecture trade-off problem ...

Software Architecture Design Reasoning: A Card Game to Help Novice Designers
[chapter]
2016
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
Software design is a complicated process, and novice designers have seldom been taught how to reason with a design. They use a naturalistic approach to work their way through software design. ...
In order to impart the use of design techniques, a card game was developed to help design reasoning. ...
