| Abstract: | Architecture reviews have evolved over the past decade to become a critical part of our continuing efforts to improve the state of affairs. We use them to identify project problems before they become costly to fix and to provide timely information to upper management so that they can make better-informed decisions. It provides the foundation for reuse, using commercially available software, and getting to the marketplace fast. The reviews also help identify best practices to projects and socialize such practices across the organization, thereby improving the organization's quality and operations. |
