KDM12 — Align ‘ArchitectureView element with ISO (rh-13)

Related to 19.3.8

"The ArchitectureView class represents a logical packaging of the architectural artifacts related to a particular view of a software system."

The terminology herein should be aligned to use terms from ISO/IEC 42010:2007, as we can see substantial alignment.

In addition to alignment on terms, it would be A Good Thing for the developers of this document to look at the draft 42010:20xx, to understand the emerging requirements on Architecture Frameworks. DIS 19506 could well be positioned as an Architecture Framework that conforms to the requirements in the revision of ISO/IEC 42010.

ArchitectureView class should have attributes with those in the 42010 conceptual model: a corresponding Architectural Viewpoint (which also must be an ArchitectureElement in the present DIS, see Clause 5.3); Identifier, Purpose; and its contained Architecturl Models (see Clause 5.4).
