摘要
作为在软件生命周期早期保障软件质量的重要手段之一,软件体系结构评估技术是软件体系结构研究中的一个重要组成部分.将现有的软件体系结构评估方法划分为3类:基于场景的评估方法、基于度量和预测的评估方法以及特定软件体系结构描述语言的评估方法.按照软件体系结构评估技术的评价框架,分别从评估方法的目标、质量属性、关键技术等方面对这3类方法的特点进行介绍和对比.最后分析了现有研究中存在的不足并进一步探讨了软件体系结构评估技术的研究趋势.
Software architecture evaluation is an important technology used to assure the quality of software products early in the software lifecycle. This paper classifies three types of software architecture evaluation methods： scenario-based, metric and prediction based, and ADL-based. Software architecture evaluation method characteristics （such as method goal, quality attribute, key technique） are then combined with these classifications to produce a comparison framework. This paper utilizes this framework to analyze various existing software architecture evaluation methods and point out problems which need to be resolved. Finally, potential research directions of software architecture evaluation methods are discussed.
