Architecture-based approach to support the evaluation of alternative design decisions

Component-Based System (CBS) is a promised approach to build applications from deployed components. It provides efficiency, reliability, maintainability. Interpreting the results of performance analysis and generating an alternative design to build system from component (Hardware/Software) is a grea...

Interpreting the results of performance analysis and generating an alternative design to build system from component (Hardware/Software) is a great challenge in the software performance domain.

PSO technique can be used to effectively generate alternatives design options in spanned design space and facilitate the design decision during the development process. The proposed approach aids developers to effectively trades-off between architectural designs alternatives, because it covers and generates all possible options and provides the best solution.
