“We are calling on organisations that develop or implement component based software systems, such as service oriented architectures, to come and see the tools we have on offer and potentially collaborate and work with us”, said Professor Ian Gorton, Project Leader from the Empirical Software Engineering Research Program. “Our model-driven performance testing tools capture best-practice in mitigating performance and scalability risks for component based systems. With these solutions, performance tests can be built in hours instead of weeks”, said Professor Gorton. “An organisation that invests time in paying attention to architecture will ultimately reap return on their investment, but upfront effort is essential. When it comes to major systems implementation and re-work, there is ‘no free lunch’. You will always pay for your decisions either now or later – you simply pay a lot less now.” The three tools to be on display include: ArchDesigner – supports advanced collaborative decision-making processes to better select from competing technologies and designs for new IT projects; BRedB – a structured architecture repository for the capture and retrieval of design patterns, solutions and work-arounds; Revel8or – improves the critical process of load and performance testing of new software systems prior to their implementation.{moscomment} |
