System Architecture Design and Modeling

Catalog description

Concepts and techniques for architecting systems and the process of developing and evaluating architectures. Generating functional, physical, and operational architecture. Modeling and analysis approaches; generation of analyzable architecture models; interface design; architecture frameworks; enterprise engineering; design for reliability, maintainability, usability, supportability, producibility, disposability, and life cycle costs; validation and verification of systems architecture; the analysis of complexity; methods of decomposition and re-integration; trade-offs between optimality and reusability; the effective application of COTS; and practical heuristics for developing good architectures.
