To cope with these difficulties, ontology has been used as artifact. This paper proposes ontology for Software Architectural design based on IEEE model for architecture description and Kruchten 41 model for viewpoints classification. For categorization of style and views, ISOIEC 42010 has been used. Corpus method has been used to evaluate ontology. The main aim of the proposed ontology is to classify and locate Software Architectural design information. </abstract> <index>Open Science Index 84, 2013</index> </article>
