About this title

Synopsis

Component Software Engineering is an emerging technology about to take the software industry by storm. Building on existing object-oriented approaches, component technology can be used to deliver reusable, 'off-the-shelf ' software components for incorporation into large applications. Component Software: Beyond Object-Oriented Programming explains the technical foundations of this evolving technology and its importance in the software market place. It provides in-depth discussion of both the technical and the business issues to be considered, then moves on to suggest approaches for implementing component-oriented software production and the organizational requirements for success. The author draws on his own experience to offer tried-and-tested solutions to common problems and novel approaches to potential pitfalls. Anyone responsible for developing software strategy, evaluating new technologies, buying or building software will find Clemens Szyperski's objective and market-aware perspective of this new area invaluable.
