Third international workshop on sharing and reusing architectural knowledge (SHARK 2008)

The shift of the software architecture community towards architectural knowledge has brought along some promising research directions. In this workshop we discuss the issues that lead to the application of architectural knowledge in research and industrial practice; ongoing research and new ideas to advance the field. In its previous editions we examined the state of the art and practice, future challenges and trends. This third edition will discuss, among others, architectural knowledge as perceived by different research communities, including requirements engineering, service-oriented computing and international standardization.
