Abstract
In the previous chapter, formalized description approach is discussed to describe software architecture. However, researchers incline to draw much more support from software architecture integrated development environment ( IDE ), a development aid tool, for its powerful functions. Recently, more and more researchers begin to study tools’ support in architecture that aids practitioners to create domain-specific architectural design. The shift from formalized description approach to software architecture IDE description is a necessary tendency during the growth of software architecture.
