A specifier's introduction to formal methods
TL;DR: Formal methods used in developing computer systems are defined, and their role is delineated, and certain pragmatic concerns about formal methods and their users, uses, and characteristics are discussed.

Towards requirements-driven information systems engineering: the Tropos project
TL;DR: This paper proposes a software development methodology named Tropos which is founded on concepts used to model early requirements, and adopts the i organizational modeling framework, which offers the notions of actor, goal and (actor) dependency.

Detection of logical coupling based on product release history
TL;DR: This work uses information in a release history of a system to uncover logical dependencies and change patterns among modules, identifying logical coupling among modules in such a way that potential structural shortcomings can be identified and further examined, pointing to restructuring or reengineering opportunities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Correct architecture refinement
TL;DR: A method is presented for the stepwise refinement of an abstract architecture into a relatively correct lower-level architecture that is intended to implement it, and a special correctness criterion is defined for the domain of software architecture.

Toward a Product System Modularity Construct: Literature Review and Reconceptualization
TL;DR: The paper constitutively defines product modularity in terms of component separability and component combinability, and an indirect operational definition is then proposed by operationalizing component separable and component Combinability.
