Abstract

The function and significance of mission-critical software-intensive systems have got substantial recognition. Software architecture has become a new field since system software is all the time more intricate. Agile software development counters the advancement in requirement, besides to attend to the fixed plan. In this paper, the effort has been made to find parameters for software architecture evaluation and then evaluate software architecture under agile environment based on the determined parameters.
