	Origins of Software Architecture Study
		Although the term architecture is still used today in some communities to refer to the user view of a system, it isn't what is meant by software architecture, which refers to the structure of the system quite hidden from the user.
		However, the notion of architecture as a common description of a class of systems -- i.e., an abstraction, where all the instantiations are said to exhibit the architecture -- endures, and is at the heart of the concept.
		Work in software architecture can be seen as attempting to codify the commonality among members of a program family, so that the high-level design decisions inherent in each member of a program family need not be re-invented, re-validated, and re-described.

	Japanese architecture Summary
		In the mid-nineteenth century, the profession of architecture was introduced to Japan from abroad, and the first architects were trained to use Western historical styles in their work.
		The Ohiroma of Nijo Castle (17th century) in Kyoto is one of the classic examples of the shoin, with its tokonoma (alcove), shoin window (overlooking a carefully landscaped garden), and clearly differentiated areas for the Tokugawa lords and their vassals.
		He adapted the inner courtyards of traditional Osaka houses to new urban architecture, using open stairways and bridges to lessen the sealed atmosphere of the standard city dwelling.

	Symmetry in Architecture by Kim Williams, Architect
		Architecture is most frequently characterized by the nature of its elements: we recognize a Greek temple by its portico and pediments; a Gothic cathedral is characterized by its pointed arches and flying buttresses.
		This architectural space is most likely characterized by symmetry as well, though it is perhaps less familiar, and it is a symmetry which we experience.
		Thus we see that in this arc of architectural history, the dominant symmetry evolved from a generalized axial symmetry in the Roman age, to bilateral symmetry in the Paleo-Christian, Romanesque and Gothic ages, to rotational and reflectional symmetry in the Renaissance.

	Symmetry in Architecture by Kim Williams, Architect
		Architecture is most frequently characterized by the nature of its elements: we recognize a Greek temple by its portico and pediments; a Gothic cathedral is characterized by its pointed arches and flying buttresses.
		In Roman architecture, strictly observed axial symmetry gives rise to spaces that are monumental and static, that is, generally embodying a sense of equilibrium rather than expressing a sense of dynamic movement.[8]
		Thus we see that in this arc of architectural history, the dominant symmetry evolved from a generalized axial symmetry in the Roman age, to bilateral symmetry in the Paleo-Christian, Romanesque and Gothic ages, to rotational and reflectional symmetry in the Renaissance.

	Hierarchy and History in Simon's "Architecture of Complexity"
		In [complex] systems, the whole is more than the sum of its parts, not in an ultimate, metaphysical sense, but in the important pragmatic sense that, given the properties of the parts and the laws of their interaction, it is not a trivial matter to infer the properties of the whole.
		Elementary components that are far apart in terms of the graph structure of parts and subparts are typically far apart in spatial terms as well; in any event they are likely to be far apart in causal terms [13].
		The year that he wrote "The Architecture of Complexity" (1962) might be seen in retrospect as the high-water mark of the classical hierarchical organization.

	PlanetPapers - Ancient Egyptian Religious Architecture
		Egypt’s grand architectural design was a result of the religious values and beliefs that were in place at the time.
		One of the most outstanding factors that makes the Egyptians religious architecture so great is the fact that it has remained unmoved for thousands of years, undeterred by all that has taken place around.
		Undoubtedly the most striking reflection of Egypt’s architectural prowess is in the mechanical construction of their monuments, in particular the pyramid, with its ‘sheer size alone enough to dumbfound any passer-by’ (Silverman:135, 1997).

		Levine was himself a student of Scully's, and his writings on French 19th-century Beaux-Arts architecture owe much to his mentor's rehabilitation of those aspects of architectural history (such as academic practice and its dedication to historical styles) once denigrated by modernist architects and their critical apologists.
		Scully's position at Yale was something of a pulpit from which he could preach this new gospel of what would soon be called postmodernism to a sophisticated, elite audience.
