| Summary: | The systems architecting processes are the core processes for the system architect. The actual process for producing the system architecture description consists of doing the architecting and validating or reviewing and approving its output. The system architect has to ensure that the system architecture considers each life cycle stage of the system and the system's future evolution. The chapter shows some examples of the process steps in architecture definition. The outcomes of the architecture definition and design definitions processes overlap when delivering the description of the system design, because the system design refines certain aspects of the system elements that result from architecture definition. The change and configuration management process in the scope of systems architecting ensures that versions of the system architecture description or even of separately versioned parts of it are put under configuration management. © The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2022, corrected publication 2022.
