Matching, Ranking, and Selecting Components: A COTS-Aware Requirements Engineering and Software Architecting Approach
نویسندگان
چکیده
At the heart of a well-disciplined, systematic methodology that explicitly supports the use of commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) components is a clearly defined process for effectively using components that meet the needs of the system under development. In this paper, we present the CARE/SA approach that supports the iterative matching, ranking, and selection of COTS components. The components are represented as an aggregate of its functional and non-functional requirements and architecture.

متن کاملA COTS-Aware Requirements Engineering Process: a Goal- and Agent-oriented Approach
The goals of developing systems better, faster, and cheaper continue to drive software engineering practitioners and researchers to investigate software engineering methodologies. In requirements engineering, the focus has been on modeling the software engineering process and products for systems that are being built from scratch. As the size and complexity of systems continues to grow the use ...
