Metamodel manifest for ATAM. Ties together the ATAM evaluation ontology into a single discoverable resource.

The ATAM metamodel definition, aggregating the evaluation ontology with its utility tree, sensitivity/tradeoff points, risks, and risk themes.

Based on Framework

ATAM

The Architecture Tradeoff Analysis Method (ATAM) — a method for evaluating software architectures relative to quality attribute goals, developed by the Software Engineering Institute (SEI) at Carnegie Mellon University. ATAM evaluations expose architectural risks that potentially inhibit the achievement of business goals.

onto

Ontology for the Architecture Tradeoff Analysis Method (ATAM) from the Software Engineering Institute (SEI) at Carnegie Mellon University. Models the evaluation-specific concepts that ATAM adds beyond the core decision and quality attribute vocabulary: utility trees, sensitivity points, tradeoff points, risks, non-risks, and risk themes. ATAM is a method for evaluating software architectures relative to quality attribute goals. It exposes architectural risks that potentially inhibit the achievement of business goals by systematically analyzing quality attribute scenarios against architectural approaches. Use together with: * ad:arch-decision — for decisions, forces, options, and QA scenarios * refa:ref-arch — for patterns and tactics (architectural approaches) * iso25010 — for quality attribute definitions
