L’Architettura del Software

(Software Architecture)
Laurea Magistrale
in Informatica

Paolo Ciancarini
Goals and prerequisites
•  The course “Software Architecture” presents the main
ideas on design methods and technologies, useful to build
large and complex software-intensive systems
•  Prerequisites:
•  Be able to program with an o-o language like Java
•  Basic notions of software engineering
•  Basic notions of UML
•  IMPORTANT: you should be able to recognize and use
the main design patterns
Effort and scheduling
•  Effort : 6 cfu
•  Course duration: from sept to december
•  Class:
•  Tue 16.30-18-30 room Ercolani 3
•  Wed 16.30-18.30 room Ercolani 3
Software and architecture
Software: industry born in the ’60, young and
unique
Software systems are more and more large
and complex: Google is 2 billions LOC
Architecture: ancient design discipline
Software Architecture: a new discipline, less
mature than Hardware Architecture
Syllabus
•  Software: engineering vs architecting
•  Describing software architectures
•  Architecting with agile methods
•  Languages for software architecting
•  Architectural styles
•  Special styles: interactive, distributed, cloud
•  Model Driven Architecture
•  Enterprise architecture
•  Evaluating a software architecture
Exam
•  Attending class (and tests) 20%
•  Report on a sw architecture topic 50%
•  Presentation of the report 30%

•  Warning: students who cannot attend my


class (eg. student workers) will receive
additional tasks (they have to ask me for
them)
Additional tasks
•  Additional readings and written
summaries
