First International Workshop on Incorporating COTS into Software Systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
This workshop explores innovative ways of integrating COTS software into software systems for purposes often unimagined by their original designers. It emphasizes tools and techniques for plugging COTS into software systems safely and predictably. The past has predominantly explored how to deal with COTS integration during requirements engineering, risk assessment, and selection. This workshop focuses on how to complement ordinary software development with techniques for designing, implementing, and testing COTS integration.

Dynamic Model for COTS Glue Code Development and COTS Integration
One of the most significant changes in the software development area is the trend of building systems incorporating pre-existing software, with special emphasis upon the use of commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) software components. COTS describes software commercially available as stand-alone products and which offer specific functionality needed by a larger system into which they might be incorp...

Government policies on the acquisition of software-intensive systems have recently undergone a significant shift in emphasis toward use of existing commercial products. Some Requests for Proposals (RFPs) now include a mandate concerning the amount of COTS (commercial off-the-shelf) products that must be included. This interest in COTS products is premised on a number of factors, not least of wh...

Component-Based Software Development is focused on assembling previously existing components (COTS and other non-developmental items) into larger systems, and migrating existing systems toward component approaches. Ideally, most of the application developer’s time is spent integrating components. We present an approach that can be used in the process of establishing component integration’s qual...

The conventional rationale for using COTS (commercial off-theshelf) components is that the more a software system is built from COTS products, the lower the cost of initial development. Less understood is that during the long term sustainment phase—from deployment through retirement—the cost of maintenance of a COTS-based system (CBS) generally increases as the number of COTS products used incr...
