  Essays on Software Architecture
Effective use of architecture as a means to reduce and manage system complexity appears to depend rather heavily on the use of prescriptive architectures, that is, architectures that serve as specifications for system development and constrain developers with regard to certain important system issues.
Architectural views for a reference architecture will identify the external and component level interfaces by specific details where known and by abstractions where they are determined by target system elaboration.
The architecture must clearly derive from a set of driving architectural requirements that are adjudged by the architects and other stakeholders to be of sufficient importance to the system and its qualities that specific architectural mechanisms are required to insure their coverage.

Architecture The System/360 architecture, introduced in 1964, was the definition of the interface to the machine, both hardware and microcode, as observable by the "program." This was one of the first instances of the use of the term "architecture" pertaining to a computer system.
For any particular architecture facility, it is unusual for the hardware and corresponding software design to coincide; a more typical situation is that the hardware design for the first machine to implement a new architecture facility is frozen before the software design begins.
In fact, the basic architecture model was completed in 1992, and most of the basic dataflow changes were included in the hardware for G4 in preparation for introduction of the facility on G5.

 Interceptor Architecture - April 1999   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
The architecture we present is an enabling technology which facilitates the dynamic augmentation of applications with added functionality by integrating web architectures and object service architectures.
One of the reasons the IA architecture is reusable is due to the fact that the invocation parameters and returned objects associated with the invocation of the IA are packaged up at a high-level as generic Request and Reply objects.
This, in turn, enables dynamic extensibility of the environment this architecture has been tied into because the environment need not be aware of the implementation of the services prior to their execution.

As there appear to be a number of advantages to an architecture that permits these two types of service and because, as we shall see, they can be made to share many of the same mechanisms, we propose designating two bit-patterns from the IP header precedence field.
Router output interface for two-bit architecture The packet output of a leaf router is thus a shaped stream of packets with P-bits set mingled with an unshaped best effort stream of packets, some of which may have A-bits set.
Thus this architecture is designed with agents called bandwidth brokers (BB) [2], that can be configured with organizational policies, keep track of the current allocation of marked traffic, and interpret new requests to mark traffic in light of the policies and current allocation.

 Dienst Architecture 1999
The Dienst architecture is built on the notion of individually defined services that when combined together create a distributed digital library.
The notion of physical collocation, which is the basis of collection definition in pre-digital libraries, doesn't apply in the context of distributed digital artifacts.
In contrast, the Dienst architecture defines a collection as a predicate on services and resources, and views a resource to be in a digital library collection if it can be directly discovered using the resource discovery tools of the digital library.

 Understanding JavaServer Pages Model 2 architecture - Java World
In the Model 1 architecture, shown in Figure 1, the JSP page alone is responsible for processing the incoming request and replying back to the client.
Indiscriminate usage of this architecture usually leads to a significant amount of scriptlets or Java code embedded within the JSP page, especially if there is a significant amount of request processing to be performed.
The Model 2 architecture, shown in Figure 2, is a hybrid approach for serving dynamic content, since it combines the use of both servlets and JSP.

 15-740: Computer Architecture Fall 1999 Syllabus
Finally, rather than stopping with state-of-the-art in computer architecture as of a decade ago, another theme of this course is looking at the state-of-the-art today as well as open research problems that are likely to shape systems in the future.
This course is not intended to be your first course on computer architecture or organization; it is geared toward students who have already had such a course as undergraduates.
Although the course topics (especially in the first half of the course) may look familiar even to students who have taken an undergraduate computer architecture course, this course is designed to build on undergraduate material, and will cover this topics in much greater depth.

Designed to recognize outstanding achievement in contemporary Canadian architecture, these medals are awarded annually through a juried competition co-organized by the Royal Architectural Institute and the Canada Council.
It does, however, go some distance in defining the forces that are currently shaping architectural culture in Canada, as in other nations on the periphery of the United States' global hegemony.
Still more convincing is his discussion of specific projects, as when he shows how two works bearing superficial resemblance to one another, Ledbury Park and Rotary Park, reveal distinct architectonic sensibilities through their deployment of apparently insignificant details such as canopies and pergolae.

 1999 Laureate Announcement
The purpose of the Pritzker Architecture Prize is to honor annually a living architect whose built work demonstrates a combination of those qualities of talent, vision and commitment, which has produced consistent and significant contributions to humanity and the built environment through the art of architecture.
The field of architecture was chosen by the Pritzker family because of their keen interest in building due to their involvement with developing the Hyatt Hotels around the world; also because architecture was a creative endeavor not included in the Nobel Prizes.
The bronze medallion awarded to each Laureate of the Pritzker Architecture Prize is based on designs of Louis Sullivan, famed Chicago architect generally acknowledged as the father of the skyscraper.

 Tech Report: HPL-1999-93: Automatic Architecture Synthesis and
The process of architecture design makes concrete decisions regarding the number and types of functional units, number of read/write ports on register files, the datapath interconnect, the instruction format, its decoding hardware, and the instruction unit datapath.
The system also generates the corresponding detailed machine description and instruction format description that can be used to retarget a compiler and an assembler respectively.
This process is part of an overall design system, called Program-In-Chip-Out (PICO), which has the ability to perform automatic exploration of the architectural design space while customizing the architecture to a given application and making intelligent, quantitative, cost-performance tradeoffs.

Designing virtual worlds as architecture considers the form and function of spatial virtual environments as an alternative kind of architectural design, which provides a new perspective to organise and explore the World Wide Web.
Virtual Architecture as one of the newly emerged areas provides many exciting directions and possibilities for further research and interdisciplinary collaboration, which has attracted the attention of researchers and practitioners from many different disciplines such as Architecture, Computer Science, Graphic Design, Linguistic Study, Philosophy, Sociology and so on.
The introduction and critical analysis of current theories and design examples aim at revealing the nature of Virtual Architecture, discovering the ill-defined aspects of current theories and designs in order to expanding these theories and develop new directions for future studies.

But all Web services need to be resilient in their very design and architecture.
The long-term solution is obviously to make identity management a part of the architecture and allow users to log into the Internet once and for all and then have all other sites confirm the user's identity with a central password manager.
Once we get ubiquitous wireless Internet it will hopefully be possible to get a truly simplified approach to computer networking where we don't have to remember that there is a network.
