How is architecture synthesis defined?

Architecture synthesis is the process of creating a software architecture, which involves a series of decisions about the overall structure and organization of a software system. This includes defining system components, their relationships, and their interactions. Architecture synthesis involves selecting the most appropriate architecture style, patterns, and principles for the system based on the requirements of the stakeholders. Architects need to consider trade-offs between quality attributes such as performance, scalability, maintainability, and security while synthesizing a software architecture. The goal of architecture synthesis is to create a software architecture that meets the requirements of the stakeholders and aligns with their strategic goals.
