Title :
Thoughts on the information system architect role
Abstract :
The role of the system architect is key to the success of projects. But it has not received the attention necessary to define it separately from the roles of other key players, such as the role of project manager. To remedy this lack of study, IEEE Computer Society has attempted, lately, to define software engineering processes. It is the author´s opinion that it is the system architect role that should have been studied and articulated rather than the detailed processes. It is recommended that the SWEBOK process be refocused to further define the role.
