Abstract

Components are stored in a component repository for later reuse. Effective search and retrieval of desired components in a component repository is a very important issue. It usually takes a lot of time and efforts to gather information about a component, and its availability is essential to implement a repository. Software Component Descriptor proposed in CORBA 3 contains information about a component using an XML vocabulary. In this paper we extend Software Component Descriptor to be useful for the search of a component repository. We use a facet scheme as a search method of a component repository. And our new retrieval method supports queries connected with logical operators such as AND, OR, NOT, which were not supported with existing facet retrieval methods. Also we reduce the search complexity considerably.

컴포넌트 저장소의 효율적인 검색이 컴포넌트 재사용에 매우 중요하다. 컴포넌트 저장소에 보관할 컴포넌트에 대한 정보를 얻는데 일반적으로 많은 시간과 노력이 필요하다. CORBA 3의 컴포넌트 소프트웨어 서술자는 XML을 사용하여 일반적인 컴포넌트의 특성을 서술한다. 본 논문에서 CORBA 3의 소프트웨어 컴포넌트 서술자를 확장하며 이를 사용하여 컴포넌트 저장소의 검색에 필요한 정보를 얻는다. 패싯에 기초한 새로운 검색 방법을 제안하여 기존의 패싯 방법에서 지원하지 않았던 논리 연산자를 사용한 검색이 가능하며 또한 검색의 복잡도가 향상된다.
