Software Architecture for Big Data and the Cloud, published by Morgan Kaufmann, 2017

Economics-Driven Software Architecture, published by Morgan Kaufmann, 2014

Relating System Quality and Software Architecture (SQSA), published by Morgan Kaufmann, 2014

Aligning Enterprise, System, and Software Architectures, published as Premier Reference Source, IG Global, 2013

The book covers both theoretical approaches and practical solutions in the processes for aligning enterprise, systems, and software architectures. This book aims to provide architects and researchers with a clear understanding of all three types of architectures.
Foreword by Paul Clements, SEI CMU: Since the late 1980s, architecture research has emerged as the principled study of the large-scale structures of systems. From its roots in qualitative descriptions of empirically observed useful system organizations, architecture has matured to encompass broad explorations of notations, tools, and analysis techniques. Whereas initially the research area interpreted practice, it now offers concrete guidance for complex design and development. It has made the transition from basic research to an essential element of design and construction, So began a retrospective paper that Mary Shaw and I wrote for IEEE Software entitled The Golden Age of Software Architecture [Shaw 06]. I took the liberty of removing six instances of the word software and one system, and I think the result makes a suitable beginning for this book.

Guest editor for a special issue on the Future of Software Engineering IN and FOR the Cloud. Systems and Software, ELSEVIER Science. Guest editor for a special issue on Software Architecture and Mobility. Systems and Software, ELSEVIER Science, Volume 83, Issue 6 (2010).
