It is well known that modifying software by hand, especially someone else's, is not only slow and tedious but so notoriously error-prone that we strive for components that ne...
This paper describes a process for selecting and evaluating candidates for component based software engineering. The process is aimed at developers sourcing components from third ...
There is a need for mechanisms for maintaining and restoring software integrity on deployed systems. Dynamic replacement, removal and addition of components in deployed systems is...
In component-based software engineering, software systems are built by assembling prefabricated reusable components. The compatibility between the assembled components is crucial. ...
