Abstract. Automata-based interface and protocol specifications provide an elegant framework to capture and automatically verify the interactive behavior of component-based software...
We present a first approach that combines the mobile agent and the compositional paradigms into a new agent-based compositional model. The aim of this work is to explore the capabi...
Object-oriented programs cause a shift in focus from software units to the way software classes and components are connected. Thus, we are finding that we need less emphasis on un...
Software architectures are often designed with respect to some architecture patterns, like the pipeline and peer-to-peer. These patterns are the guarantee of some quality attribute...
Abstract. We present a technique for designing reconfiguration controllers in the Fractal component-based framework. We obtain discrete control loops that automatically enforce saf...
