structurella
Structurella is a conceptual framework used to describe and analyze the hierarchical organization of complex systems by decomposing them into modular units called structurelles. It emphasizes local structure and the rules that govern how units connect, interact, and evolve, while preserving global coherence.
Etymology and terminology: the term blends the Latin structura with a diminutive suffix, suggesting small, reusable
Theory and components: a structurella model comprises structurelles, interface schemas that specify how units contact one
Applications and examples: structurella has been applied in software architecture to map microservices into modular, interoperable
History and reception: the term appeared in theoretical modeling literature in the early 21st century as researchers
