Using the framework of Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL), this pioneering book provides the first comprehensive account of Korean grammar, building foundations for an engagement with Korean texts across a range of spoken and written registers and genres. It treats grammar as a meaning-making resource, comprising experiential resources for construing reality, interpersonal resources for enacting social relations, textual resources for composing coherent discourse, and logical resources for linking clauses. It deals not only with clause systems and structures but also focuses on their realisation as groups and phrases (and clause rank particles), and the realisation of these groups and phrases in words (including clitics and relevant suffixation). Its concluding chapter demonstrates how this grammar can be applied - for teaching Korean as a foreign language and for translation and interpreting studies. This book is essential reading for scholars and students of Asian languages and linguistics and functional approaches to grammar description.

The field of translation studies has grown rapidly over recent decades, with critical questions being investigated across the globe. Drawing together this scattered research, Systemic Functional Linguistics and Translation Studies consolidates important propositions by drawing on systemic functional linguistics (SFL).Using the SFL dimensions of stratification, rank, axis and delicacy to show how languages are more similar or more different, this book provides a state-of-the-art critical assessment of the interaction between SFL and translation studies. Highlighting the major contribution SFL can make in developing translation theories, a team of world-leading experts investigate how intricate and wide-ranging translation questions, such as re-instantiation and multimodality, can be most efficiently explored through a detailed meaning- and function-oriented linguistic theory. Examining the theoretical concepts and practical applications of SFL in the translation of a range of languages, including Arabic, Chinese and Brazilian Portuguese, Systemic Functional Linguistics and Translation Studies provides a stimulus for new work spanning the two fields and suggests new directions for future research.

This book presents the Unified Architecture Process (UAP)—a comprehensive and methodologically rigorous framework designed specifically for addressing the challenges encountered in modern industrial software systems.The book is structured into three main parts. Part I “Overview of Software Architecture” introduces foundational principles and outlines the Unified Architecture Process (UAP) as the core methodological framework. Part II “Guidelines for the Unified Architecture Process” provides detailed instructions for implementing each UAP activity, step, and task, supported by rationales, templates, examples, and checklists. Each chapter in this part corresponds to a specific activity defined in the UAP, and the chapter titles are aligned with the activity names specified in the process. Part III “Resources for Software Architecture Design” offers two categories of indispensable resources, including a catalog of over 30 representative architecture styles.With more than 190 illustrative figures, the book delivers practical insights into software architecture design. To facilitate skill development and mastery of the UAP, the text includes 140 carefully crafted exercises, promoting hands-on learning and reinforcing conceptual understanding.Combining academic rigor with practical applicability, this book equips students and professionals with structured methodologies and thorough guidance. A companion website further enhances the learning experience, providing downloadable architecture templates, case studies, and additional supplementary materials.
