In the context of IT systems, as opposed to buildings, "architecture" describes the approach to designing and constructing of systems, networks, applications or even information storage. A variety of formal methodologies exist to support information architecture development, and even more exist to help develop Security Architecture.

The art and Science of designing buildings and structures. More generally, it is the design of the total built Environment, including town planning, urban design, and landscape architecture.

The kind of compluter you're working on, where one "kind" of computer means all those computers sharing a compatible machine language. Since Perl programs are (typically) simple text files, not executable images, a Perl program is much less sensitive to the architecture it's running on than programs in other languages, such as C [..]

The organizational structure and associated behavior of a system. An architecture can be recursively decomposed into parts that interact through interfaces, relationships that connect parts, and constraints for assembling parts. Parts that interact through interfaces include classes, components, and subsystems.
