DESCRIPTION OF THE ARCHITECTURAL SURVEY LANGUAGES

Abstract

The architecture is a broad concept, and the idea of each project / field what the architecture and what types of data, which should contain. As a result, he introduced many of the exact scope and general purpose architecture description languages (ADLS) and use them in various fields, with particular emphasis on architectural issues. Nevertheless, the ADL and nobody ever appropriate for all projects or fields. This diversity creates a problem for users of these languages, including: the implementation of a code division architecture, allowing contradictions, which leads to confusion, violating the architectural features that prevent the development of software. To overcome these problems begin to describe the basic elements used to build some of the recent ADLS including AADL, MetaH, SADL, ArchJava and ACME. And we also show how these elements interact with each other, and how to use the restriction to control their behavior. We compared the classification depends on the support of the attributes of each of these languages (for example, fields, views, architectural design, construction, interfaces and types, semantics, and restrictions, volatility, updates, maintenance, easy to use and so on ... ) into three main categories Features-oriented system, linguist and features, as well as in processes intended function. And finally, we hope that this will result in a building designed structure is well thought out and very well knows that gives engineers the opportunity to talk about the system characteristics (such as resistance) at a high level of abstraction, and is essential to Success of a complex system based on software layout.
