Composition of a system is driven by the (a) identification and specification of basic components, and (b) specification of the interactions across the components, i.e., the commu...
This paper describes the vital role of freehand sketching in the design process. When designers first tackle a design problem they usually do so by sketching. We will explore the ...
Incorporating components from a number of different sources into a given application is generally considered to be a non-trivial activity. Over the years, various coordination mec...
The process of composing a service from other services typically involves multiple models. These models may represent the service from distinct perspectives, e.g., to model the di...
