ATAM
The Architecture Tradeoff Analysis Method (ATAM) is a systematic technique developed by Kazman et al. at CMU/SEI for evaluating software architectures against quality attributes (performance, security, modifiability). ATAM uncovers architectural risks and tradeoffs early, helping teams assess whether designs meet quality goals before implementation.
