Versioning Architecture-Implementation Relationships

Student: Eugen Nistor, UCI/ISR


Advisor: André van der Hoek, UCI/ISR


Collaborators: Justin Erenkrantz, UCI/ISR and Scott Hendrickson, UCI/ISR

Abstract: Previous research efforts into creating links between software architecture and its implementations have not explicitly addressed versioning. This situation calls for an explicit approach to versioning the architecture-implementation relationship capable of being utilized throughout design, implementation, and deployment. We present ArchEvol, a set of xADL 2.0 extensions, ArchStudio and Eclipse plug-ins, and Subversion guidelines for managing the architectural-implementation relationship throughout the entire software life cycle.
