Selecting Software Components with Multiple Interfaces
نویسندگان
چکیده
Component-based software development is gaining recognition as the key technology for the construction of high-quality, evolvable, large software systems in timely and affordable manners. Component search and service matching have become two of the key issues involved in this process. However, current proposals addressing these issues are based on the simplistic assumptions that components present only one interface with the services they offer. This work presents an extension of those approaches in which components may offer and require several interfaces, extending the traditional component “substitutability” operator. In addition, an algorithm for selecting COTS components with multiple interfaces from a repository in order to implement a given software architecture is presented.

Loose Interface Definition: An Extended Interface Definition for Dynamic Service Composition
The concept of Dynamic Service Composition is to create a complex composite service through combining multiple software or hardware components at runtime. Dynamic Service Composition is similar to object-oriented or component-based software design approach since in both approaches an application is built as a combination of multiple components. However, in Dynamic Service Composition, an applic...
متن کاملSelecting and Extracting Effective Features of SSVEP-based Brain-Computer Interface
User interfaces are always one of the most important applied and study fields of information technology. The development and expansion of cognitive science studies and functionalization of its tools such as BCI1, as well as popularization of methods such as SSVEP2 to stimulate brain waves, have led to using these techniques every day, especially in appropriate solutions for physically and menta...
متن کاملHigh-level design for user and component interfaces
Component-based software architecture is very important for current software engineering practice because (a) it is the basis for re-use of software at the component level, and (b), in distributed systems, the physical distribution of an application over separate computers represents a decomposition of the application. Typical e-commerce applications consist of various components sometimes belo...
متن کاملApplication oriented operating systems
The majority of processors produced nowadays are targeted at dedicated computing systems that execute either a single application or a small set of previously known applications. In contrast to generic computing systems, these dedicated systems have very specific run-time support requirements, which are not properly fulfilled by general-purpose operating systems. The impossibility to anticipate...
متن کاملComposition Validation and Subjectivity in GenVoca Generators 1
GenVoca generators synthesize software systems by composing components from reuse libraries. GenVoca components are designed to export and import standardized interfaces, and thus be plugcompatible, interchangeable, and interoperable with other components. In this paper, we examine two different but important issues in software system synthesis. First, not all syntactically correct compositions...
