An MDE Approach for Domain based Architectural Components Modelling.

Abstract

Component Based Software Engineering (CBSE) is a popular and widely adopted software engineering paradigm that has proven his usefulness and success to increase reusability and efficiency in various application domains. In this paper, we propose a common metamodel of a component to support all the requirements of CBSE taking into account the specificities of each domain. The resulting modeling framework serves primarily to capture the basic concepts of concerns related to component systems development based on the clear separation between the development process, interactions and the domain knowledge. As a proof of concept, we are evaluating the feasibility of our approach through the CCM component model applied to an use case for building systems having real-time requirements.
