We have designed a tool to help software architects evaluate their
architecture designs for specific usability issues. We would like to
invite
software architects to look at our design and take a brief online
survey
about your opinions of the design.

In user tests of a prototype of our tool, software architects at a
major
European development organization estimated they received a 17:1 ROI
on time
they spent using the tool to evaluate a design for a product line
architecture. An open-source version of the tool should become
available
for distribution in the near future.

Participation in the survey should take less than 30 minutes. Your
responses
will be kept confidential. To participate, please go to

If you have any questions or would like further information, please
contact
ego...@cmu.edu. Thanks!

I should add, participants who complete the survey can choose to be
entered in a drawing for a $100US Amazon gift certificate. When we
have received 40 entries, a winner will be selected at random and
notified via email.
