15-180(A): Research Topics in Software Architecture
aka the Software Architecture Reading Group (SARG)
David Garlan and Mary Shaw, proprietors
Description
This course examines recent research results in software architecture,
including topics such as notations for software architecture, formal
specification of architectures, domain-specific software architectures, and
tools for architectural design. This semester we will examine the breadth of
software architecture research and look at how the research results are
reaching practice. We will be concerned with information structures as
well as program structures.
The theme this semester is architectural models
The seminar is open to anyone interested in software architecture. The
seminar can be taken for credit (1/2 core unit in CS PhD program or 6
CMU units).

Schedule
We meet from 12:00-1:30 in Wean Hall 8220. Lunch is provided.
The original plan was to meet on mostly-alternate weeks starting
January 22. However, we were unable to meet Jan 22, so we rescheduled
a little. As a result, we always meet on Mondays, but we do not
meet precisely on alternate weeks
