Overview
Announcing a two-day seminar, to be held at Hotel Euler in Basel,
Switzerland:
Software Architecture and Iterative Development Process
by Philippe Kruchten
Rational Software Corp.
This tutorial introduces the concept of software architecture, and its
motivation. It proposes a model to represent the architecture of
software-intensive systems, using multiple views or blueprints. An iterative
process is described to develop and validate a software architecture. The
tutorial is based on extensive practical experience in the development of
large, software intensive systems.
We encourage you to advertise this unique event within your own
organisation, and look forward to seeing you in March.
Days:
March 13-14, 1996
Times:
8:30-17:00
Location:
Hotel Euler Basel, Centralbahnplatz 14, CH--4002 Basel, next to the
main railway station. Tel. (061) 272 4500.
How to get there:
easiest by train, the hotel being conveniently located near the central
railway station of Basel; for those coming by car, two large public
parking areas are available close to the railway station, just a couple
of minutes away from the conference location.
Price:
CHF 750.-, covers participation, lunch and morning/afternoon breaks, as
well as a 250-page document containing tutorial notes.
Hotel accomodations:
please contact directly the Tourist Board (tel. 061/261 5050, fax

Abstract
Software Architecture and Iterative Development Process
by Philippe Kruchten
Rational Software Corp.
(author of a forthcoming book on
"Software Architecture and Iterative Development"
with Grady Booch)
This tutorial introduces the concept of software architecture and its
motivation, and offers some practical means to tackle the task of developing
from scratch a software architecture: a model, a notation, a process and
organisation. It has two parts.
Part 1 deals with the "why" and "what." It introduces the concept of
software architecture, and its motivation. It proposes a model to represent
the architecture of software-intensive systems, using multiple views or
blueprints. For each view: logical, dynamic, static, physical, the elements
involved, a view-specific notation, and its relations with other views are
detailed.
Part 2 deals with the "how" and "who." An iterative process is described to
develop and validate a software architecture. The organisational aspects
related to software architecture and in particular the role of an architect
or an architecture team are then examined.
The tutorial is based on practical experience in the development of large,
software intensive systems in the areas of aerospace, defence, command and
control, and telecommunications over the last fifteen years, and the
examples are derived from telecommunication and air traffic control systems.
About the Speaker: Ph. Kruchten is a Senior Technical Consultant at Rational
where he is in charge of the Software architecture Practice Area. He has 20
years of experience of software development. He has been associated with
several large-scale software-intensive projects around the world in
telecommunications, avionics, defense, transportation, and compilation.
Since August 1992, he has been the lead software architect for the Canadian
Automated Air Traffic System, developed by Hughes Aircraft of Canada in
Vancouver.
Ph. Kruchten has presented this tutorial around the world: Washington,
Barcelona, Los Angeles, Brisbane, Taipei, Vancouver. Some aspects of the
tutorial have been recently described in an article by Ph. Kruchten in the
IEEE Software magazine, Nov. 1995, pp.42-50: "The 4+1 view model of
architecture".
Ph. Kruchten has a Master Degree in Mechanical Engineering from Ecole
Centrale de Lyon (France) and a Doctorate Degree in Information Technology
from the French National Institute of Telecommunications in Paris (France).
He is a member of ACM and the IEEE Computer Society.
