Software Architecture Quiz

What is the purpose of software architecture?

• The practice of viewing software systems in terms of their major components

• Allows engineers and programmers to understand how software works and to identify problems with software.

• Viewing components of software separately from each other according to function.

What is Architectural analysis?

• Business requirements and environmental contexts of a system that may change over time, such as legal, social, financial, competitive, and technology concerns

• Development-time of non-functional requirements such as maintainability and transferability.

• The process of understanding the environment in which a proposed system will operate and determining the requirements for the system.

• How well the system will perform runtime non-functional requirements such as reliability, operability, performance efficiency, security, compatibility, etc.

Architectural synthesis is the process of creating an architecture.

• TRUE

• FALSE

What's the main goal of Architecture evolution?

• Provides a fundamental structure of a software system.

• Maintaining and adapting an existing software architecture to meet changes in requirements and environment.

• Adding new functionality as well as maintaining existing functionality and system behavior.

is the process of determining how well the current design or a portion of it satisfies the requirements derived during analysis.
