I'm developing the architecture diagram for a system and i need to use generally accepted standards for component types(name of the component and other details) in architecture diagram. (i am currently using "system", "layers", "sub system" and "units" etc). I studied UML notation but there are no architectural diagrams in UML (only deployment diagrams).
So can any one tell me what are the standers of component types (Stereotypes) when developing a architectural diagram?
Thanks
