It depends on the scale of the architecture. If you're after kernel architecture or OS architecture, then yes, Torvalds, K&R, etc.
But for enterprise software architecture, that's a different level and has a very different approach, because it is most about business processes, not the actual construction of software.
It's about designing a framework for those processes that adapts to a business as it changes or expands or has to integrate new infrastructure, it's about isolation of customer data, ensuring regulatory compliance etc.
Those are all constraints on the design of the software, not so much actual computing and other infrastructure.
