架构师学习之路:康威定律

康威定律:

  organizations which design systems ... are constrained to produce designs which are copies of the communication structures of these organizations. — M. Conway
  一个组织的系统通常被设计成这个组织通信结构的副本——Melvin Conway(1967)。

  大致意思是:设计系统的企业,它们生产的设计等同于企业内的沟通结构。

  

   现在很多公司基本以业务线划分团队,划分系统边界。团队规模越大,沟通、协作成本越高。

 

四大定律:

  

  第一定律 Communication dictates design

  组织沟通方式会通过系统设计表达出来

  

  第二定律 There is never enough time to do something right, but there is always enough time to do it over

  时间再多一件事情也不可能做的完美,但总有时间做完一件事情

  第三定律 There is a homomorphism from the linear graph of a system to the linear graph of its design organization

  线型系统和线型组织架构间有潜在的异质同态特性

  第四定律 The structures of large systems tend to disintegrate during development, qualitatively more so than with small systems

  大的系统组织总是比小系统更倾向于分解
