In today's software engineering practices, building applications from components is the ongoing trend. What can be noticed however is that there really is not a clear consens...
A commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) component is an implementation of common functionality among family members, where an in-house component implements an organization-specific func...
Component-based development helps to improve the modularity and reusability of embedded systems. Component models devised for embedded systems are typically restricted due to the l...
Abstract. Many distributed applications can be understood in terms of components interacting in an open environment. This interaction is not always uniform as the network may consi...
Component-based development has proven effective in many engineering domains, and several general component technologies are available. Most of these are focused on providing an e...
