New video: From informal architecture diagrams to flexible blended models

Architects commonly use informal diagrams for the early design and communication of software systems. Due to their notational freedom and effectiveness for communication, informal diagrams are often preferred over models with a fixed syntax and semantics as defined by a modeling language. But precisely because of this lack of established semantics, these diagrams are of limited use in later development stages for analysis tasks such as consistency checking or change
