Abstract. Component based design is a new methodology for the construction of distributed systems and applications. In this new setting, a system is built by the assembly of (pre)-...
Component based design is a new paradigm to build distributed systems and applications. The problem of compositional verification of such systems is however still open. We investig...
In component software, the independence of components is achieved by separating their interfaces from implementations. The interface definition of a component serves as the contr...
Performance prediction methods for component-based software systems aim at supporting design decisions of software architects during early development stages. With the increased a...
The crucial strength of the component paradigm lies in the possibility to encapsulate behaviours. In this work, we focus on the observable behaviour of composite components which ...
