TL;DR: The CORUM model of reengineering tool interoperation is built upon to include software architecture concepts and tools and is organized around the metaphor of a "horseshoe", where the left-hand side of the horseshoe consists of fact extraction from an existing system, the right hand side consists of development activities, and the bridge between the sides consists of a set of transformations from the old to the new.

TL;DR: In this article, a method of determining if one web site has the same information as another web site is proposed, where a signal to select a form configured to find data in a file containing information displayed on a web site and accessed via a network is received, applying the selected form to the file and selectively identifying item information available in the file, copying identified item information to a first data file, the item information being related to a specific product or service.

TL;DR: An investigation into the reuse and application of an existing ontology for the purpose of specifying and formally developing software for aircraft design finds that knowledge reuse was cost-effective and it would have taken significantly longer to design the knowledge content of this ontology from scratch in the authors' application.

TL;DR: A unified approach to using scenarios to support both the design, analysis and maintenance of software architectures is presented, and a tool is presented that aids in: scenario capture, mapping scenarios to software architectures, and the association of analytic models with particular portions of architectures.
