Summary

This book focuses on software architecture and the value of architecture in the development of long-lived, mission-critical, trustworthy software-systems. The author introduces and demonstrates the powerful strategy of Managed Evolution, along with the engineering best practice known as Principle-based Architecting. The book examines in detail architecture principles for e.g., Business Value, Changeability, Resilience, and Dependability.

The author argues that the software development community has a strong responsibility to produce and operate useful, dependable, and trustworthy software. Software should at the same time provide business value and guarantee many quality-of-service properties, including security, safety, performance, and integrity. As Dr. Furrer states, Producing dependable software is a balancing act between investing in the implementation of business functionality and investing in the quality-of-service properties of the software-systems.

The book presents extensive coverage of such concepts as:

  • Principle-Based Architecting
  • Managed Evolution Strategy
  • The Future
  • Principles for Business Value
  • Legacy Software Modernization/Migration
  • Architecture Principles for Changeability
  • Architecture Principles for Resilience
  • Architecture Principles for Dependability

The text is supplemented with numerous figures, tables, examples and illustrative quotations. Future-Proof Software-Systems provides a set of good engineering practices, devised for integration into most software development processes dedicated to the creation of software-systems that incorporate Managed Evolution.
