In existing component models, control originates in components, and connectors are channels for passing on the control to other components. This provides a mechanism for message pa...
This article is a report on the 5th international workshop devoted to the Fractal component model that took place the 4th of July 2006 in Nantes, France, as an ECOOP workshop. Prio...
Critical properties of software systems, such as reliability, should be considered early in the development, when they can govern crucial architectural design decisions. A number o...

Software components turn out to be a convenient model to build complex applications for scientific computing and to run them on a computational grid. However, deploying complex, co...
Ideally in the deployment phase, components should be composable, and their composition checked. Current component models fall short of this ideal. Most models do not allow composi...
