We demonstrate that both a logical and a mathematical approach is required to design an architecture which describes precisely the construction of complex systems. The key advantage of our architecture is that it not only describes the construction of hierarchical systems in a precise way, but that it also expresses the operations that carry out the structuring of system components in a precise way. The concept of a module is expressed within our architecture, so that we can provide reusability for the hierarchically structured system components.
