摘　　要：The engineering of distributed adaptive software is a complex task which requires a rigorous approach. Software architectural （structural） concepts and principles are highly beneficial in specifying, designing, analysing, constructing and evolving distributed software. A rigorous architectural approach dictates formalisms and techniques that are compositional, components that are context independent and systems that can be constructed and evolved incrementally. This paper overviews some of the underlying reasons for adopting an architectural approach, including a brief ＂rational history＂ of our research work, and indicates how an architectural model can potentially facilitate the provision of self-managed adaptive software system.The engineering of distributed adaptive software is a complex task which requires a rigorous approach.
