| Criterion |  Knowledge Modeling Linked Open Terms |  Architecture Architecture Decision Record |  Architecture LASR (Lightweight Approach for Software Reviews) |
|---|---|---|---|
Purposedifferent | Linked Open Terms connects terminology work with linked-data thinking and makes terminology technically connectable. Vocabulary, meanings, and references can thereby be maintained consistently. | An ADR permanently records an architecture decision with context, trade-offs, and consequence. It creates continuity for later changes because the decision path stays traceable. | LASR helps development teams identify where their software falls short of important quality goals and which improvements to consider. A small group with existing system knowledge can make an initial assessment and investigate open questions in more detail. |
Complexitydifferent | Medium | Low | Medium |
Timedifferent | Wochen bis Monate | 15-45 min | 3–4 h for initial assessment; preparation and deeper analysis additional |
Participantsdifferent | 2-8 | 1-3 | 1 or a small team; particularly suitable for 3–4 people |
Formatdifferent | Workshop + async | Async | Workshop + async |
Outputdifferent | Ontology Requirements, Conceptual Model, Published Ontology, Documentation, Maintenance Plan | ADR File, Decision Log, Rationale | Lean Mission Statement describing the software’s purpose, Prioritized quality goals and evaluation criteria, Risks and estimated gaps against quality goals, More closely examined findings and open checks |
