Architectural Styles as a Guide for Software Architecture Reconstruction

Much effort has been put in defining methods, techniques, and tools for software architecture reconstruction (SAR) Software Architecture Transformation (SAT), and Software Architecture-based Development, but much less attention has been paid to what lies at the heart of architecture-based development, software architectural styles. We argue that architecture-based software development could be much more productive if centered around the concept of software architecture styles, hence the need for style recovery in the process of software architecture reconstruction. The reason behind this is generally. Furthermore, with the coherence architectural styles can bring to the process of automated software development, integration of tools and methods might be accomplished more conveniently.
