Abstract :
This paper proposes a method to select the software architecture for a family of systems that meets user requirements. The method is based on a set of universally accepted design principles and tactics that aims to establish a systematic correlation between the quality requirements of a system and an architectural style that best implements it. The proposed method can also be a valuable assistant to a novice software engineer in selecting an optimal architectural style because the selection of an appropriate architectural style plays an important role in success or failure of a system.
