The last decade marked the first real attempt to turn software development into engineering through the concepts of ComponentBased Software Development (CBSD) and Commercial Off-T...
A software component model should define what components are, and how they can be composed. That is, it should define a theory of components and their composition. Current softwa...
Current software component models insufficiently reflect the different stages of component life-cycle, which involves design, implementation, deployment, and runtime. Therefore, re...
: Component-based software development has matured into standard practice in software engineering. Among the advantages of reusing software modules are lower costs, faster developm...
Abstract. Software components are deployed into an execution environment before runtime. The execution environment influences the runtime execution of a component. Therefore, it i...
