fragile, viscous,immobile and rigid if not designed and implemented properly. These are factors that softwareengineers need to take into account while they consider the architecture of the proposed softwaresystem. These factors also make teaching software architecture a difficult endeavor.There are several documented difficulties in teaching software architecture. Experience is thebest way to understand the various nuances involved in real world implementations of softwarearchitecture, due to its abstract nature. Software architecture is also complex: the aspects ofpeople, process and technology that permeate software engineering are important considerationsin software architecture as well. Students need to gain proficiency in the social as well
