Dear Architect,

We’re calling for papers for the 23rd issue of the Architecture Journal.

After extensive coverage of the latest trends that are associated with BI (to be released next month), SOA, the economic downturn, and “green computing,” it’s time to focus again on our bread and butter: the core activities that we perform independently of the trend or aspect with which we’re dealing.

For this edition of the Architecture Journal, then, we’re looking for interesting, thought-provoking, and insightful articles about Architecture Modeling and its role inside a broader Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC).

Some suggestions for architecture modeling and SDLC include (but are not limited to):

If you’d like to share your wisdom and experience in architecture modeling and processes with the architecture community, this is your chance. To submit your proposal, please send us the following content no later than December 11, 2009:

Submissions must be made to archjrnl@microsoft.com (we receive many submissions for each issue, so we encourage you to put time and thought into yours).

After the call for articles has ended, everyone who has submitted an idea will be notified via e-mail as to whether their submission was accepted or not. If it is accepted, your article must follow this schedule:

* We recommend that articles be between 2,500 and 3,500 words in length.
