In this paper we describe a system for developing architectural design environments that exploit architectural styles to guide software architects in producing specific systems. The primary contributions of this research are:
  • A generic object model for representing architectural designs;
  • The characterization of architectural styles as speculations of this object model;
  • A toolkit for creating an open architectural design environment from a description of a specific architectural style.
We use our experience in implementing these concepts to illustrate how style-oriened architectural design raises new challenges for software support environments.}, KEYWORDS = {Architectural Style, Software Architecture} }
