      But it's great timing, because there's a pre-conference workshop at SATURN 2019 focused on creating a minimal "required reading" set for software architects and... musts/short list is hard whenhttps://twitter.com/DanaBredemeyer/status/862309966144839680 …

      Architecture is a way of thinking that is inescapably concerned with everything.

      So, let me cheat (I mean, do research) on my pre-conference assignment: What's your short(ish) list (what should be required reading for software architects)?

      Perhaps my mind is duller than yours, but I'd still come back to, "SA In Practise" and its focus on the pursuit of software qualities. All else follows from that. Decisions matter precisely as they help achieve or not the desired qualities

      Yes, I was acknowledging your mention (of SA in Practice, or any in that series, really) and asking what else:https://twitter.com/ruthmalan/status/1117911985268641797 …

      But I am interested in the latter question — what do you view (in addition to those SEI books) as “minimum core reading” for software architects?

      Replying to @ruthmalan @chrisfcarroll

      Any of several books now cover that space (eg Design It, by Keeling), and I agree that at least one of those should be core reading.

      As for duller minds, it’s not a competition ;-) :-) (sorry, low hanging fruit jokes are the only ones i’m tall enough to pick, and my mind certainly had its unequalled dull moments :-)

      Jest(er)ing aside, I really like this as a must criteria for (at least one work covering the topic) such a minimal list: “focus on the pursuit of software qualities”

      Which would then raise the question of what else is a core topic? Views? So Rosanski and Woods, along with the SEI crew books (in a “pick at least one” sense)?

      No! Just, “Focus on the pursuit of software qualities”. Views and everything else in an SA textbook are a means to that end :-)

      Except … this single-mindedness needs to be corrected by @sarahmei's point, which I shall paraphrase as, “Software qualities are not technical properties of a software system. They are human qualities of an organisation and its systems”

          Design quality is not a property of the code. It's a joint property of the code and the context in which it exists.

          Yes this one. I thought of it 'cos I saw it quoted ½ way down a neat piece on Architecture Decisions I read on LinkedIn last week :-) And re-reading @sarahmei's thread again, I think that her context, in context, was "people and the organisation"
