Large, complex and long-lived software need to be upgraded at runtime. Addition, removal and replacement of a software component are the elementary evolution operations that have ...
Complex and long-lived software need to be upgraded at runtime. Replacing a software component with a newer version is the basic evolution operation that has to be supported. It i...
Huge size and high complexity of legacy software are the main sources of today's software evolution problems. While we can ease software evolution with re-engineering tools, ...
Agile development processes and component-based software architectures are two software engineering approaches that contribute to enable the rapid building and evolution of applic...
Many component models have been proposed to address the challenge of reducing software development time and costs. Such models often offer similar functionality. We study how deve...
