Abstract

Architectural decisions (such as selecting patterns, technologies, or decomposing systems) and their rationale are a significant aspect of architectural knowledge. In this paper, we present a tool that helps architects capture tacit knowledge about architectural decisions. Furthermore, the tool helps architects and other stakeholders analyze decisions. Finally, the tool supports group decision making. The tool is based on theoretical and conceptual foundations created and evaluated in previous work. We developed the tool as a research tool in an academic environment, and we used the tool with industrial practitioners. The tool is web-based and available as an open source project. In this paper we highlight the underlying research contributions of the tool and show how research approaches and findings have been transferred into a working tool.
捕获和制定架构决策:一个开源在线工具
体系结构决策(例如选择模式、技术或分解系统)及其基本原理是体系结构知识的一个重要方面。在本文中,我们提供了一个工具,可以帮助架构师获取关于架构决策的隐性知识。此外,该工具还可以帮助架构师和其他涉众分析决策。最后,该工具支持群体决策。该工具是基于在以前的工作中创建和评估的理论和概念基础。我们在学术环境中开发了该工具作为研究工具,并与工业从业者一起使用该工具。该工具是基于web的,可以作为开源项目使用。在本文中,我们强调了该工具的潜在研究贡献,并展示了如何将研究方法和发现转化为工作工具。
