Abstract
Designing the global structure of a software intensive system – the software architecture – is a knowledge-intensive process. The knowledge produced and consumed during this process is broad and complex, and needs to be shared and reused among different stakeholders, and across different life-cycle phases. Managing architectural knowledge is the topic of this book. This introductory chapter discusses the two fields that form the underlying basis for the topic of this book: software architecture, and knowledge management.
