Abstract
AbstractThis paper provides an approach to Rapid Architecting based on systems engineering principles. After an introduction to the problem area, the notion of “Rapid Architecting” is explained: First a description of a generic process model for Rapid Architecting is proposed. This description is not tied to any specific method for architecting. Then we describe a method that implements this generic process model as well as the models needed for carrying out the process. While explaining the process and the models, we outline the underlying systems engineering principles that have been the basis for the definition of the process and the method.
