AMPLA: An Agile Process for Modeling Logical Architectures
Advances in Systems Analysis Software Engineering and High Performance Computing, 2020Co-Authors: Nuno Santos, Nuno Ferreira, Ricardo J. MachadoAbstract:Software architecture design, when performed in context of agile software development (ASD), sometimes referred to as “agile architecting,” promotes the emerging and incremental design of the Architectural Artifact in a sense of avoiding “big design upfront” (BDUF). This chapter presents the Agile Modeling Process for Logical Architectures (AMPLA) method, an approach for supporting the emergence of a candidate (logical) architecture, rather than BDUF, the architecture in an early phase. The architecture then emerges throughout agile iterations, where AMPLA plays a key contribution for providing traceability between models, from the business need to service specifications, ranging from design stages to deployment, hence covering a software development life cycle (SDLC).

SIGSAND/PLAIS - Towards Agile Architecting: Proposing an Architectural Pathway Within an Industry 4.0 Project
Information Systems: Research Development Applications Education, 2019Co-Authors: Nuno Santos, Nuno Ferreira, Ricardo J. MachadoAbstract:Software architecture design, when performed in context of agile software development (ASD), sometimes referred as “agile architecting”, promotes the emerging and incremental design of the Architectural Artifact, in a sense of avoiding “big design upfront” (BDUF). Performing “agile architecting” is not always straightforward, mainly because the architecture has a required life-cycle and each stage responds to different needs. There is a lack of a pathway that guides agile architecting in an end-to-end approach (from business requirements to deployment). This paper proposes a pathway that includes architecture design from software development life-cycle (SDLC) stages of software development that use ASD approaches, where two main Artifacts are considered: a candidate logical architecture and a refined logical architecture. These Artifacts are included in a pathway where they receive input from business processes perspective and guide software development during ASD iterations (Sprints).

Development Life Cycle for Semantically Coherent Data Exchange Specification
Concurrent Engineering, 2008Co-Authors: Boonserm Kulvatunyou, Katherine C. Morris, Nenad Ivezic, Simon P. FrechetteAbstract:In enterprise integration, a data-exchange specification is an Architectural Artifact that evolves along with the business. Maintaining a coherent, data-exchange, semantic model is an important, yet nontrivial task. A coherent, semantic model of data — exchange specifications supports reuse, promotes interoperability, and, consequently, reduces integration costs. Components of data-exchange specifications must be consistent and valid in terms of agreed upon standards and guidelines. In this article, we propose an activity model for the creation, test, and maintenance of a shared semantic model that is coherent and supports scalable standards-based enterprise integration. While it frames our research and the development of tools to support those activities for semantic models implemented using XML (Extensible Markup Language) Schema, the activity model presented in this article is independent of the data-exchange technology.

DEVELOPMENT LIFE CYCLE AND TOOLS FOR DATA EXCHANGE SPECIFICATION
Volume 3: 28th Computers and Information in Engineering Conference Parts A and B, 2008Co-Authors: Katherine C. Morris, Puja Goyal, Simon P. FrechetteAbstract:In enterprise integration, a data exchange specification is an Architectural Artifact that evolves along with the business. Developing and maintaining a coherent semantic model for data exchange is an important, yet non-trivial, task. A coherent semantic model of data exchange specifications supports reuse, promotes interoperability, and, consequently, reduces integration costs. Components of data exchange specifications must be consistent and valid in terms of agreed upon standards and guidelines. In this paper, we describe an activity model and NIST developed tools for the creation, test, and maintenance of a shared semantic model that is coherent and supports scalable, standards-based enterprise integration. The activity model frames our research and helps define tools to support the development of data exchange specification implemented using XML (Extensible Markup Language) Schema.

Finding Hy-Brasil: The Gateway Between Reality And Unreality
2019Co-Authors: Yuanpeng ZhangAbstract:Through Irish history, different spiritual demands in specific historical moments impacts on the legends of Hy-Brasil. In turn, the stories of Hy-Brasil reflects the history of Ireland through its possible position, appearances, items events, viewpoints gateways and monuments. The project is to use the history of Hy-Brasil, a mystical island of Ireland, to explore the architecture of myth, which are expected to be triggered and formed by the current situation of Ireland. It looks to design a pragmatic space by providing a gateway to the mythic island of Hy-Brasil. Siting on the north end the Ireland, the Lough Foyle in Donegal, the project constructs an Architectural Artifact out of a particular strata of Ireland’s specific geology and monumental landscape to take people into the imagination and expectation of perceive the Irish mythology.
