A Comprehensive Process for Defining Software Architectures That Work A good software architecture is the foundation of any successful software system. Effective architecting requires a clear understanding of organizational roles, artifacts, activities performed, and the optimal sequence for performing those activities. With The Process of Software Architecting, Peter Eeles and Peter Cripps provide guidance on these challenges by covering all aspects of architecting a software system, introducing best-practice techniques that apply in every environment, whether based on Java EE, Microsoft .NET, or other technologies. Eeles and Cripps first illuminate concepts related to software architecture, including architecture documentation and reusable assets. Next, they present an accessible, task-focused guided tour through a typical project, focusing on the architect's role, with common issues illuminated and addressed throughout. Finally, they conclude with a set of best practices that can be applied to today's most complex systems. You will come away from this book understanding * The role of the architect in a typical software development project * How to document a software architecture to satisfy the needs of different stakeholders * The applicability of reusable assets in the process of architecting * The role of the architect with respect to requirements definition * The derivation of an architecture based on a set of requirements * The relevance of architecting in creating complex systemsThe Process of Software Architecting will be an indispensable resource for every working and aspiring software architect-and for every project manager and other software professional who needs to understand how architecture influences their work.

读后感

众所周知，IBM里面的人都是是螺丝钉型专家，本身就像软件里的模块，接受一些输入，产生一些输出，随时可以被替换。 架构师如果不写代码，那么他的工作成果体现在哪呢？大概就是文档和各种各样的结构图 对于当今互联网企业来说，需要的是多面手，尤其对于中小企业，不太可能养活...  

最早接触软件架构方面的内容是在“软件工程”的课程之中，当时只是觉得遥不可即。教师缺乏开发经验更导致这种实践指导思想难以贯彻，终于不了了之。但是当我在做平生第一个“大”程序时，问题出现了。由于对软件架构规划不甚了了，最初我对它是没什么规划的，不知不觉就...  

什么是软件架构？本书的开头列举了很多观点。越是普遍存在的东西定义起来越复杂，就如同定义什么是桌子。本书的强项并不在于此处，因此它只是列举和引用了以往各理论大师的定义，从组成论和决策论两个方面进行了阐述，而这样的阐述是为了后续的实践过程即流程活动作为出发点的...  

身为公司的系统架构师,很长一段时间,我都不知我真正的职责是什么.实际上,在工作上,跟架构师的角色对应的任务也不多.更多的是项目的实施,代码的开发,当然.系统设计是必不可少的.只是,没有本书中所罗列的这么详细,这么复杂.分工也没有这么清晰.毕竟咱们不是IT公司,更多的是身兼数...
