Abstract
As the complexity of software increases, the choice of the appropriate software architecture becomes a critical task. This paper provides a guideline for selecting the appropriate software architecture based on pertinent ISO 25010 quality characteristics. The guideline was established through an analytical survey of 113 papers published from 2010 to 2014. Through this survey, we first identified a set of commonly used software architectures in the software engineering literature. Secondly, we applied the Formal Concept Analysis technique to classify each one of these architectures according to ISO 25010 quality characteristics. Finally, we identified the relationships among ISO 25010 quality characteristics, which in turn helped us to develop a guideline on how to select the appropriate software architecture with respect to ISO 25010 quality characteristics. In order to make sure about the validation of the proposed guideline, a survey with industrial experts is in progress. Data were collected from two companies working in the software development field (ST2i and Telnet).
