A Technology Investigation Supporting Software Architecture and Analysis for Evolution

Abstract

In this report we summarize the approaches and result of the project "A Technology Investigation Supporting Software Architecture and Analysis for Evolution," carried out at Carnegie Mellon University under funding from the DARPA Evolutionary Design of Complex Systems Program. in this project we addressed problems in managing the evolution of complex software by providing new technology to describe and analyze a system's software architecture. This report summarizes our efforts in two areas: (1) understanding an existing systems in preparation for making changes, and (2) actually making the changes to the system correctly. We also describe the application of our techniques and tools to industrial and defense architecture.
