Abstract	The quality of an architectural design of a software system has a great influence on achieving non-functional requirements to the system, so formal evaluation and validation techniques to designed architectures are necessary in the early phase of development processes. In this paper, we present a technique for describing software architectures formally based on Coloured Petri Nets (CPNs) and a technique for reusing architectural constituents. Architectural descriptions are essentially written with a CPN language, so that the evaluation and analysis on the architectural descriptions can be made in architectural design phrase. We extract reusable architectural parts from standard architecture styles and architectural patterns so that a designer can construct an architecture by only retrieving the parts and combine them. We also designed the language for describing the combination of the architectural parts. To show the effectiveness of our techniques, we illustrate how a blackboard architecture can be composed of reusable parts and be simulated on a CPN tool (Design/CPN). key words: software architecture, Coloured Petri Net, architecture style, architecture description language, architectural reuse
