The SEI has opportunities for organizations that want to collaborate with us to solve important issues in software architecture research.

1. Quality Attribute Foundations and Analysis - Creating and extending theories for analyzing system properties that are critical to achieving desired levels of quality.
2. Architecture-Centric Practices - Creating architecture-centric methods and techniques for designing, analyzing, and evolving systems at all scales
3. Architecture Principles for Ultra-Large-Scale (ULS) Systems - Developing architecture design and analysis principles that account for socio-technical interactions, decentralized control, and continuous evolution
