Abstract

This paper introduces a Software Architecture Complexity Model (SACM) based on theories from cognitive science and system attributes that have proven to be indicators of maintainability in practice. SACM can serve as a formal model to reason about why certain attributes influence the complexity of an implemented architecture. Also, SACM can be used as a starting point in existing architecture evaluation methods such as the ATAM. Alternatively, SACM can be used in a stand-alone fashion to reason about a software architecture's complexity.

软件架构复杂性的认知模型

本文介绍了一种基于认知科学理论和系统属性的软件架构复杂性模型(SACM)，该模型在实践中已被证明是可维护性的指标。SACM可以作为一个正式的模型来解释为什么某些属性会影响已实现体系结构的复杂性。此外，SACM可以用作现有体系结构评估方法(如ATAM)的起点。另外，SACM可以以独立的方式用于推断软件体系结构的复杂性。
