چکیده
Componentisation of software promises to deliver cost efficiency that has not been achieved through object orientation [19]. PAC [5] is a popular conceptual architecture for structuring user interface software in an object oriented fashion. This paper reports our experience of adapting and refining PAC as a component architecture in the context of consumer electronics, and On-screen Displays in particular. The paper describes a structured scheme for the specification of user interface software components, distinguishing ‘look’ and ‘feel’ specific components, and fostering their modular development and reuse.

A New Trust Model for B2C E-Commerce Based on 3D User Interfaces
Lack of trust is one of the key bottle necks in e-commerce development. Nowadays many advanced technologies are trying to address the trust issues in e-commerce. One among them suggests using suitable user interfaces. This paper investigates the functionality and capabilities of 3D graphical user interfaces in regard to trust building in the customers of next generation of B2C e-commerce websit...
متن کاملContract-Based Formal Specification of Safety Critical Systems
The paper proposes an approach to light-weight formal specification for interfaces, connectors, contracts and integration of component systems based on UML 2.0 superstructure. Both of static and dynamic contracts are provided with formal models. Dynamic contract can be verified through finding a legal environment in an optimistical way for the integrated components, whose contracts are depicted...

We present a model for components and their composition to be used in component-based software development. We describe how components are specified for its syntactical view at the interface level, functional view at the requirement level, internal view at the design level and how they are composed. In a component based system development, a component consists of a set of interfaces, provided t...

متن کاملModal specification theories for component-based design
Component-based software engineering has emerged as an important software engineering discipline to cope with the growing complexity of today’s software systems. Components are encapsulated software units with well-defined interfaces. A key principle of component-based development is to build larger systems by composition of smaller, less complex components. An important application area concer...
