The software architecture greatly determines the quality of the system. Evaluating the architecture during the early stage of development can reduce the risk. When used appropriately, it will have a favorable effect on the system. Architectural Tradeoff Analysis Method (ATAM) is an architecture evaluation technique for understanding the tradeoffs in the architecture of software systems. This thesis describes the application of ATAM to evaluate the query engine component of the ResearchIQ. ResearchIQ is a semantically anchored resource discovery tool, which will help the researchers in the domain of clinical and translation science to discover the resources in a simplified manner. The primary goal of ResearchIQ is the delivery of search results effectively to the researchers. A large part of thesis is devoted in evaluating the architectural alternatives of the query engine component of ResearchIQ using ATAM. Three initial architectures alternatives are presented in the thesis. The thesis introduces the system (ResearchIQ) being evaluated, its business drivers and background. It also provides a general overview of the ATAM process describes the application of the ATAM to the ResearchIQ system and presents the important results. The document is intended as a report to develop a prototype implementation that led to the final framework that enhances the performance of ResearchIQ.
