What are the four main cat- Architectural design, component design, persistence design, and egories of design in soft- ware engineering? interface design. 2. Define software architec- ture and its importance. Software architecture defines how a system is organized and aids in stakeholder communication, system-level design, analysis, and large-scale reuse of components. 3. What are the two aspects Software architecture can be considered in the small aspect, fo- in which software architec- cusing on a single system, and in the large aspect, focusing on a ture can be considered? collection of systems. 4. What caution is mentioned In Agile, it's typically agreed upon that early stages should focus on regarding Agile develop- ment and architectural de- sign? designing the system architecture, as incremental development of architectures is not usually successful. 5. Describe Krutchen's 4+1 Architectural Views. Krutchen's 4+1 Architectural Views consist of logical view, process view, development view, physical view, and an additional use case or scenario view for understanding and designing complex systems. 6. How can architectural de- sign maximize non-func- tional system characteris- tics? Architectural design can maximize characteristics like performance, security, safety, availability, and maintainability by structuring the system accordingly. 7. What is an architectural pattern? An architectural pattern is an abstract description of tried-and-test- ed solutions to common application problems, providing guide- lines for when to use and when to avoid them. 8. Explain the Mod- el-View-Controller (MVC) architectural pattern.
