| Criterion |  Architecture ARID (Active Reviews for Intermediate Designs) |  Facilitation 3-Circle Venn Diagram |
|---|---|---|
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 three perspectives matter at the same time, a Three-Circle Venn Diagram shows the overlaps and remainders precisely. It makes visible where shared effect arises and where only a partial perspective applies. |
Complexitydifferent | Medium | Low |
Timedifferent | 2–4 h review as a planning range; preparation and evaluation additional | 15-45 min |
