ABSTRACT
This paper focuses on the business aspects of architecture decision making -- in particular information needed by managers and architects for making architecture investment decisions. We present the results of 19 interviews in an industrial organization aimed at identifying information used for architecture decision making in the context of product lines. We summarize the interview findings to investigate future possibilities in improving architecture decision making.

Customer value in architecture decision making
ECSA'10: Proceedings of the 4th European conference on Software architectureThis paper focuses on the business aspects of architecture decision making - in particular how to quantify the customer value of quality improvements to support architecture investment decisions. We developed concepts for quantifying the impact of ...
Empirical evaluation of a process to increase consensus in group architectural decision making
ContextMany software architectural decisions are group decisions rather than decisions made by individuals. Consensus in a group of decision makers increases the acceptance of a decision among decision makers and their confidence in that decision. ...
The design of AHPEC in web-based decision support system for making decision
AIC'10/BEBI'10: Proceedings of the 10th WSEAS international conference on applied informatics and communications, and 3rd WSEAS international conference on Biomedical electronics and biomedical informaticsThis paper presents the architecture of the WDSS using AHPEC for making decision. The WDSS-AHPEC involves client, user interface, server, web server, database, and DSS model. The DSS model in this study is using AHPEC method. In applying AHPEC, it ...
