Abstract. Software evolution has largely been focused on low-level implemen-tation artefacts through refactoring techniques rather than the architectural level. However code-centric evolution techniques have not managed to effectively solve the problems that software evolution entails. Instead a paradigm shift is emerg-ing, where the evolution approaches put software architecture on the spotlight. This shift focuses on effectively documenting and modifying the architectural design decisions during system evolution, while synchronizing them with both the requirements and the implementation. The second workshop on the theme of Architecture-Centric Evolution attempted to explore the issues that such evolu-tion approaches are dealing with, as w...
