Google SysML and MBSE? I know what I mean by software architecture. The question is what do you mean! There's soft and woolly architecture (e.g. UNIX pipes, RPC, distributed systems) or something a little more formal like Executable UML (xUML). The last book I read on xUML was Models to Code: With No Mysterious Gaps by Leon Starr. Leon's a fine author. It's a interesting book but the action language is non-standard and the examples limited (C and microcontrollers). But it gives you a taste and won't scare you like the OMG documents would. ;) -- sig pending (since 1995)
