9780521155694: Foundations of Component-Based Systems

Synopsis

This collection of top-notch articles by well-known experts brings together, for the first time, key elements of this area that are fast becoming the focus of much current research and practice in computing. About half the articles deal with theoretical frameworks, models, and systems of notation; the rest comprise case studies by architects of prototype systems who present findings on architectures verification. The emphasis is on advances in the technological infrastructure of component-based systems; how to design and specify reusable components; and how to reason about, verify, and validate systems from components. An introduction by Clemens Szyperski gives a snapshot of current research in the field.

Book Description

This collection of articles by well-known experts brings together several elements that are fast becoming the focus of much current research and practice in computing. About half of the articles deal with theoretical frameworks, models, and systems of notation. The rest of the book presents case studies by researchers who have built prototype systems, including findings on architecture verification, which show how theory might move into practice. This will be an essential purchase for researchers in computer science, practitioners of formal methods, and computer programmers working in safety-critical applications or in the technology of component-based systems.

Review

"...at the cutting edge of computer science." Application Development Advisor

"The book is well written and, more important, matches one of the current emphases of the software and systems industry...it is quite detailed and thorough, but it could certainly serve well as a text for a graduate-level computer science course. Practitioners and researchers who apply these approaches will also want to have this book in thier libraries." Computing Reviews
