I've taken the first step towards formalizing the discussion around the specializaton architecture. As it stands (version 1) the problem is presented in terms of design decisions, requirements and definitions from NDRSC and CMSC. use-cases that were developed for the Paella proposal are presented as requirements -- generalizing them so that they may be applied to all candidate architectures a unified set of evaluation criteria for candidate architectures is presented Paella proposal artifacts are included (in a subdirectory) What remains to be done: evaluate the Paella proposal against the evaluation criteria include other proposals -- this is where you come in. This means describing them and evaluating them in the position paper and adding their artifacts in their own subdirectory. make a recommendation As always, please feel free to debate requirements, definitions, and evaluation criteria. I look forward to your feedback. Regards, Bill Attachment: Specialization Architecture 1.zip Description: Binary data
