| Criterion |  Architecture ARID (Active Reviews for Intermediate Designs) |  Facilitation Open Space Technology |
|---|---|---|
Purposedifferent | ARID examines how well developers can work with a technical design. It focuses on a part of the system that can still be revised, between the architecture overview and the detailed specification. | When a complex topic does not yet have a fitting agenda, Open Space Technology hands topic ownership back to the participants. The format suits questions that only move forward when real interest determines the order. |
Complexitydifferent | Medium | High |
Timedifferent | 2–4 h review as a planning range; preparation and evaluation additional | 0.5-2 Tage |
Participantsdifferent | Designers, developers as users, and facilitation | 20-500+ |
Formatdifferent | Workshop + async | Workshop |
Outputdifferent | Prioritized development tasks, Jointly produced code or pseudocode, Observed difficulties and open design questions, Proposed design revisions | Session Marketplace, Proceedings, Action Topics |
