What Do Software Architects Think They (Should) Do?
Research in Progress
Abstract Software architecture is an integral part of software development, and has become more complex, with the transition from traditional to agile development methods. Hence, the architect’s tasks in the software development project must be well defined. Though there was some amount of empirical research addressing architects‘ perceptions, most of the research in the area of software architecture addressed this topic theoretically. Perception, being a part of, and having an effect on, cognitive processes and decision making, is explored in this research in order to gain a deeper understanding of what tasks architects find to be included in their role and responsibility. Thus far, 8 in-depth interviews were conducted in various hi-tech firms, followed by distributing an on-line questionnaire, with the response of 12 architects. The obtained results demonstrate several differences between the role of the architect, as defined in literature, and the way architects perceive their role.
