  Abstract. By architecture of a software system we typically denote the
  knowledge about the organization of the system, the relationships among
  its components and the principles governing their design. By including
  artifacts coresponding to software engineering processes, the definition
  gets naturally extended into the architecture of a software system and
  process. This paper recalls theoretical model for representing architectural
  knowledge based on directed multi-graph, defines an architecture
  warehouse implementation of the model capable of representing the complete
  architecture of a software system and process, and shows how it
  can be harnessed to create a software intelligence layer providing software
  architects with a toolset for software analysis and visualisation. The
  reasoning is supported by examples depicting warehouse implementation
  and results obtained from its application to a sample software project.
