N2 - Software architecture provides the big picture of software systems, hence the need to evaluate its quality before further software engineering work. In this paper, a systematic mapping study was performed to summarize the existing software architecture evaluation approaches in literature and to organize the selected studies according to six classification criteria: research types, empirical types, contribution types, software quality models, quality attributes and software architecture models. Publication channels and trends were also identified. 60 studies were selected from digital libraries.
