Rationale:
• The number 42 is explained to be “the answer to everything” in neoclassic literature. The concept of Architecture is known to have
similar aspirations.

Proposal:
• The life cycle management of standards created to facilitate the
development and use of architecture-related concepts, models and
methods for systems and services.
• The architectures addressed may pertain to a range of systems and
services at different levels of abstraction or complexity. Examples of
these may be
– Enterprises (businesses)
– Technical system elements (product aggregates)
– Individual software components (products)

Rationale:
• The engineering discipline of Systems Architecture (or Systems
Architecting) has evolved side by side with other engineering disciplines
pertinent to software and systems.
• There have been concerns that even though architecture holds promise
to deliver added value to the life cycle management of systems and
services, the concepts associated with architecture are not used in a
consistent fashion and their relationships to seemingly similar concepts
in other engineering disciplines is not clear or well understood.
• It is in the interest of SC7 to accommodate architecture as a discipline
and to provide standards in this particular area of growing importance to
industry and World trade. The Architecture discipline addresses the
management of key properties of systems and services, required to
ensure e.g. integrity, interoperability and reusability, and is therefore very
much in line with the respective scopes of JTC1 and SC7.
