Many languages for software architectures have been proposed, each dealing with different stakeholder concerns, operating at different levels of abstraction and with different degrees of formality. It is known that a universal architectural language cannot exist since the various concerns, requirements, and domains may change. Moreover, stakeholder concerns and needs are various and ever evolving even while designing a single system. Model-driven techniques may be used to answer the need for supporting the creation of extensible, customizable and stakeholder-oriented architectural languages (i.e., next generation architectural languages). Part of this approach is developed in a framework called byADL. In this paper I present the big picture behind the approach, the research aspects considered in order to get byADL closer to an ideal architectural framework and future research issues.
