Fell down the stairs? Check. Embarrassed oneself in front a really HOT guy? Check. Made an enemy who most people would never cross? Check . Lasting First Impression? Definitely. Eleanore is your typical teenage girl. As typical as she can be when she's suddenly accepted into a school for geniuses- Thornwell Academy, in the middle of the school year. Everyone there has known one another for as long as they can remember. She's the odd one out. So can she fit in? And maybe find true love on the way? Or will first impressions make her life a living hell?

This work introduces architectural security analyses for detecting access violations and attack paths in software architectures. It integrates access control policies and vulnerabilities, often analyzed separately, into a unified approach using software architecture models. Contributions include metamodels for access control and vulnerabilities, scenario-based analysis, and two attack analyses. Evaluation demonstrates high accuracy in identifying issues for secure system development.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 14th International Conference on Software Architecture, ECSA 2020, held in A’quila, Italy, in September 2020. In the Research Track, 12 full papers presented together with 5 short papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 103 submissions. They are organized in topical sections as follows: microservices; uncertainty, self-adaptive, and open systems; model-based approaches; performance and security engineering; architectural smells and source code analysis; education and training; experiences and learnings from industrial case studies; and architecting contemporary distributed systems. In the Industrial Track, 11 submissions were received and 6 were accepted to form part of these proceedings. In addition the book contains 3 keynote talks. Due to the Corona pandemic ECSA 2020 was held as an virtual event.

A software architecture manifests the major early design decisions, which determine the system’s development, deployment and evolution. Thus, making better architectural decisions is one of the large challenges in software engineering. Software architecture knowledge management is about capturing practical experience and translating it into generalized architectural knowledge, and using this knowledge in the communication with stakeholders during all phases of the software lifecycle. This book presents a concise description of knowledge management in the software architecture discipline. It explains the importance of sound knowledge management practices for improving software architecture processes and products, and makes clear the role of knowledge management in software architecture and software development processes. It presents many approaches that are in use in software companies today, approaches that have been used in other domains, and approaches under development in academia. After an initial introduction by the editors, the contributions are grouped in three parts on "Architecture Knowledge Management", "Strategies and Approaches for Managing Architectural Knowledge", and "Tools and Techniques for Managing Architectural Knowledge". The presentation aims at information technology and software engineering professionals, in particular software architects and software architecture researchers. For the industrial audience, the book gives a broad and concise understanding of the importance of knowledge management for improving software architecture process and building capabilities in designing and evaluating better architectures for their mission- and business-critical systems. For researchers, the book will help to understand the applications of various knowledge management approaches in an industrial setting and to identify research challenges and opportunities.

This open access book includes contributions by leading researchers and industry thought leaders on various topics related to the essence of software engineering and their application in industrial projects. It offers a broad overview of research findings dealing with current practical software engineering issues and also pointers to potential future developments. Celebrating the 20th anniversary of adesso AG, adesso gathered some of the pioneers of software engineering including Manfred Broy, Ivar Jacobson and Carlo Ghezzi at a special symposium, where they presented their thoughts about latest software engineering research and which are part of this book. This way it offers readers a concise overview of the essence of software engineering, providing valuable insights into the latest methodological research findings and adesso’s experience applying these results in real-world projects.
