Automated Improvement of Software Architecture Models for Performance and Other Quality Attributes - Anne Koziolek Kartoniert (TB)

Quality attributes such as performance or reliability are crucial for the success of a software system and largely influenced by the software architecture. Their quantitative prediction supports systematic goal-oriented software design and forms a base of an engineering approach to software design. This thesis proposes a method and tool to automatically improve component-based software architecture (CBA) models based on such quantitative quality prediction techniques.
