Visualization of Component-based Software

New component-based techniques are emerging, leading to new ways to develop software. Industrial component technologies such as COM, JavaBeans, EJB, or CCM are powerful but their extensive use leads to component-based software products that are difficult to understand. This paper discusses several issues in visualizing component-based software products, namely the visualization of the component model itself, the visualization of software components and finally the visualization of software assemblies.
