Abstract :
Software architecture is a key concept in the design of a complex system. An architecture models the structure and behavior of the system, including the software elements and the relationships between them. While architectures were originally specified informally, recent years have seen the creation of a number of Architecture Description Languages (ADLs) [4]. ADLs are designed around the dimensions of composition and interaction, allowing the architect to introduce new concerns by constructing and combining increasingly complex elements
