Balancing Coupling in Software Design: Principles of Modularity for Sustainable Growth

This article was originally published on bmf-tech.com.

Balancing Coupling in Software Design: Principles of Modularity for Sustainable Growth is a book I read.

This book is unique in that it focuses on coupling, providing a theoretical approach to managing the complexity of architectural design.

I believe that managing complexity is crucial to determining the lifespan of an architecture, and this book offers a deep dive into coupling as an analytical perspective.

I couldn't fully grasp everything in just one read, so I plan to keep it handy for reference, especially during design phases. The perspectives on coupling are very well-organized, making it a useful tool for design analysis.

Research on coupling is not a recent development; it's a field that has been studied for a long time. Yet, software engineers seem to perpetually face the challenge of managing it. This is likely because one of the core aspects of software engineering is managing complexity.
