— Component-based software engineering (CBSE) is quickly becoming a mainstream approach to software development. At the same time, there is a massive shift from desktop applicati...
Abstract. A reference architecture integrates a set of architectural patterns that have proven their value for a family of applications. Such family of applications is characterize...
The development of software systems from already built COTS components has been motivated by the prospect of reduced cost and development time. However, developing COTS-based syst...
