Abstract. The use of Off-The-Shelf software components in ComponentBased Development implies many challenges. One of them is the lack of available and well-suited data to support s...
As software systems become increasingly complex to build developers are turning more and more to integrating pre-built components from third party developers into their systems. T...
Component-based software engineering proposes building complex applications from COTS (Commercial Off-The-Shelf) organized into component markets. Therefore, the main development e...
The last decade marked the first real attempt to turn software development into engineering through the concepts of ComponentBased Software Development (CBSD) and Commercial Off-T...
Off-The-Shelf (OTS) software components are being used within complex safety-critical applications. However, to use these untrustworthy components with confidence, it is necessary...
