Specification and Collaboration Driven Software Component Selection

More about the book

Focusing on the challenges of Component-Based Development (CBD), the book addresses the difficulties in acquiring and adapting existing software components due to imprecise specifications and user requirements. It highlights the high costs of integrating components that behave differently than expected, which can negate the productivity benefits of CBD. The proposed framework facilitates collaboration between component users and developers, enhancing the selection process through better communication and precise specifications. This resource is valuable for software developers, vendors, and researchers in the field.
