Integration in Component-Based Software Development Using Design Patterns

Components-based development is promising in improving software development productivity and software quality by re-using existing well-tested software components. However, one of the challenges of component-based development is how to integrate various components in software systems. In this paper, an approach is presented to apply design patterns to component integration. This approach uses a formal design pattern representation and a design pattern instantiation technique of automatic generation of component wrapper from design patterns.
