Abstract

The importance of non-functional requirements for computer systems is increasing. Satisfying these requirements require special attention to the software architecture, once an unsuitable architecture introduces greater complexity in addition to the intrinsic complexity of the system. Some studies have shown that, despite requirements engineering and software architecture activities act on different aspects of development, they must be performed iteratively and intertwined to produce satisfactory software systems. The STREAM process presents a systematic approach to reduce the gap between requirements and architecture development, emphasizing the functional requirements, being the non-functional ones used in an ad hoc way. However, nonfunctional requirements typically influence the system as a whole. This paper presents a process to improve STREAM in making the choice of architectural patterns from non-functional requirements, in order to guide the refinement of an architectural solution.

STREAM-AP:基于NFR将架构模式选择系统化的过程

计算机系统的非功能需求的重要性正在增加。满足这些需求需要特别注意软件体系结构，一旦一个不合适的体系结构在系统固有的复杂性之外引入了更大的复杂性。一些研究表明，尽管需求工程和软件架构活动作用于开发的不同方面，但它们必须迭代地执行并相互交织以产生令人满意的软件系统。STREAM过程提供了一种系统的方法来减少需求和体系结构开发之间的差距，强调功能需求，以一种特殊的方式使用非功能需求。然而，非功能性需求通常会影响整个系统。本文提出了一个改进STREAM的过程，用于从非功能需求中选择体系结构模式，以指导体系结构解决方案的细化。
