Architecture Design

Home > Engineering and Technology > Systems Engineering > Architecture Design

A process of designing the system's overall structure and defining its subsystems and their interrelationships.

Systems Thinking: Understanding the interconnectedness of different components in a system and how they work together to achieve an overarching goal.
System Requirements Analysis: The process of documenting, validating, and managing the functional, non-functional, and performance requirements of a system.
System Architecture: The high-level design of a system that defines its components, their functions, and how they interact with each other to achieve specific objectives.
System Design Patterns: Reusable solutions to common design problems that help to standardize and abstract system designs.
Component-based Architecture: A design approach that emphasizes the use of interchangeable software components to build complex systems.
Data Modeling & Management: The process of identifying, organizing, and storing data in a way that supports the needs of a system.
Security & Privacy: Designing systems to ensure the protection of confidential information and the integrity of the system against unauthorized access or attacks.
Performance Optimization: Designing systems that are capable of handling high volumes of data and traffic while maintaining high levels of performance.
Simulation & Modeling: Using specialized software tools to create and test virtual models of complex systems.
Verification & Validation: The process of ensuring that a system or subsystem meets its specified requirements and that it functions correctly within its intended environment.
Prototyping: Creating functional models of a system or component to test its design and identify any potential issues.
Human Factors Engineering: Designing systems to be user-friendly and easy to use, taking into account the cognitive and physical abilities of the humans who will be interacting with them.
Software Engineering: The process of designing, building, testing, and deploying software systems using best practices and standard methodologies.
Project Management: Planning, organizing, and controlling the resources and activities required to complete a system design project.
Interface Design: Designing the user interface of a system to be intuitive and easy to use, while also providing the necessary functionality to achieve the system's objectives.
Cost & Schedule Estimation: Estimating the materials, labor, and time required to design, build, and test a system and comparing those estimates against a defined budget and timeline.
Change Management: Managing the impact of changes to a system design or architecture, including changes to requirements, design, and implementation.
Enterprise Architecture: It involves the planning, designing, and managing of enterprise systems and their relationships.
Software Architecture: It focuses on designing the software structure of a system to meet functional and non-functional requirements.
Cloud Architecture: Cloud architecture deals with building systems that run on the cloud, including cloud computing, cloud storage, and cloud services.
Network Architecture: It involves the design and configuration of networks, including hardware and software, to support network communication.
Database Architecture: It focuses on designing the structure of databases, including the data model, tables, and relationships.
Security Architecture: Deals with setting up security measures for computer systems, networks, and software.
Platform Architecture: Platform architecture focuses on designing the platform on which software applications run.
Solution Architecture: Solution architecture involves designing a specific solution to a particular problem or need.
Infrastructure Architecture: It involves designing and managing the physical IT infrastructure of an organization, including servers, storage, and data centers.
Mobile Architecture: It focuses on designing applications for mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets.
System Architecture: The overall structure of a system, including hardware, software, and data, is designed in this type of architecture.
Embedded System Architecture: This architecture deals with designing systems that are embedded in other systems, such as in automotive or medical devices.
Virtualization Architecture: It deals with the design and management of virtualized computing resources.
Hardware Architecture: This type of architecture focuses on designing the physical hardware systems and components that make up a computer system.
