Illustration of the 4+1 Architectural View Model. 4+1 is a view model used for "describing the architecture of software-intensive systems, based on the use of multiple, concurrent views". [1] The views are used to describe the system from the viewpoint of different stakeholders, such as end-users, developers, system engineers, and project managers.
Enterprise architecture regards the enterprise as a large and complex system or system of systems. [3] To manage the scale and complexity of this system, an architectural framework provides tools and approaches that help architects abstract from the level of detail at which builders work, to bring enterprise design tasks into focus and produce valuable architecture description documentation.
Structure of the TOGAF Architecture Development Method (ADM). [1] The Open Group Architecture Framework (TOGAF) is the most used framework for enterprise architecture as of 2020 [2] that provides an approach for designing, planning, implementing, and governing an enterprise information technology architecture. [3] TOGAF is a high-level approach ...
In effect, people make tradeoffs. The diagram should make those specific tradeoffs visible. Therefore, before an architect creates a diagram, they should be prepared to describe, in words, which tradeoffs they are attempting to illustrate in this model. Tradeoffs Inherent in the Structure and Design: A component is not a tradeoff. Tradeoffs ...
The C4 model is a lean graphical notation technique for modeling the architecture of software systems. [1] [2] It is based on a structural decomposition (a hierarchical tree structure) of a system into containers and components and relies on existing modelling techniques such as Unified Modeling Language (UML) or entity–relationship diagrams ...
One of the first well defined function models, was the Functional Flow Block Diagram (FFBD) developed by the defense-related TRW Incorporated in the 1950s. [5] In the 1960s it was exploited by the NASA to visualize the time sequence of events in a space systems and flight missions. [ 6 ]
Fig 1. GERAM Framework: This set of components is identified in the first image and briefly described in the following. Starting from defined concepts to be used in enterprise integration (GERA), GERAM distinguishes between the methodologies for enterprise integration (GEEM) and the languages used to describe structure, contents and behaviour of the enterprise (GEML).
The architecture of a software system is a metaphor, analogous to the architecture of a building. [2] It functions as the blueprints for the system and the development project, which project management can later use to extrapolate the tasks necessary to be executed by the teams and people involved.
