Analysis of the Current Status of Architecture Description Languages
Tian Li · 2005
Architecture Description Languages (ADLs) provide both notations and tools for modeling a software system's architecture. Now,there are already more than 20 ADLs defined,and new ADLs continue to come up. How- ever, few of them are really adopted in real-world software development. In order to assess their progress and prospects, the current status of ADLs research is examined, major problems are analyzed,and possible solutions are discussed.
