“…Booch has defined modularity as the property of a system whose modules are cohesive and loosely-coupled [21]. Fenton stated that Modularity is the internal quality attribute of the software system [21]. It is also known that modularity is directly related to software architecture, since modularity is separation of a software system in independent and collaborative modules that can be organized in a software architecture [25].…”

“…The software elements of a complex system are often tightly coupled with the consequence that change in one element will affect the other elements [2][11] [12]. Stevens [17] and Bass et al [3] state that a loosely coupled element is easier to change without causing ripple effects to the other software elements of the system.…”

ResuméDen här uppsatsen behandlar skapandet och designen av en arkitektur over ett system för behandling av depression och andra psykiska sjukdomar via internet, kallat Melencolia. Ett av kraven för detta projekẗ ar att skapa ett system som kan utökas i framtiden. Vi har härlett detta krav till begreppet modularitet och för att skapa en modulär arkitektur för Melencolia har vi undersökt vad begreppet innebär och härlett det till att vara ett kvalitetsdrag hos flera kvalitetsattribut däribland "maintainability" och "reusability". AbstractThis thesis considers the problem of creating and designing an architecture for a software project that will result in a system for treatment of depression on the Internet. One of the requirements for this project, named by Melencolia, is to create a system which can be extended in the future. From this requirement we have derived the concept of modularity. In order to create a modular architecture we have concluded that modularity is a quality characteristic of multiple quality attributes such as "maintainability" and "reusability".We deploy Attribute-Driven Design (ADD) in this Melencolia project.By doing this, an architecture that is focused around modularity can be created. Since modularity is not a quality attribute, but rather a quality characteristic, we had to change the input to ADD from a quality attribute to a quality characteristic.Furthermore, we derive and propose a new method for quality characteristic evaluation of software architectures.Finally we apply our aforementioned method on the architecture of Melencolia and by doing this we get an indication on how well our proposed architecture satisfies modularity.ii
