An important technical issue in recent software development is to make needed software by the composition of components that are assemblable, and configurable, and independently extracted. The main advantage of component-based software development is reducing development time and cost. It is more cost-effective in development time to use components that are already developed than developing from scratch. There are two ways of component-based software development: one is to compose self-developed components, and the other is to by the components developed by third-parties and compose them. In the second case, existing non component programs must can be used for reuse in the component development. In this paper, we approach two methods for increase of reusability of Java program. First, we suggest the technique of extracting the elements suitable for the Beans component model from Java program, and then we show a process and a guideline of converting the extract elements into the Beans component model. Second, we suggest a technique of automatically extracting component information from the Java Beans component, expressing them in XML, its is possible to reuse the efficient component environment.

Component-based software development is introduced as a new development paradigm in software development method. This approach is different from existing software development approach because it is based on reusable and autonomous unit, component. Therefore, component-based development(CBD)is divided into two stages; component development process and component assembly process; application development process. Component development process is the core of CBD because component has a key for good software. Currently many methodologies or tools have been introduced by various academies or industries. However, those don't suggest systematic and flexible modeling techniques adaptable easily into component development project. Existing approaches have a unique orarbitrary modeling technique or provide heuristic guidelines for component modeling. As a result, many component developers are faced with a difficult problems; how to developcomponent models, when develop which diagrams, and so on. In order to address this problem, we suggest a meta-model driven approach for component development in this paper. We provide meta-models according to both layer and development phase. We expect that suggested meta-models allow component developers to develop appropriate models of the time.

Recently a lot of researches on the component-based software product lines and on applying generative programming into software product lines are being performed actively. This paper proposes an automatic component reconfiguration tool that could be applied in constructing the component-based software product lines. Our tool accepts the reuser's requirement via a feature model which is the main result of the domain engineering, and makes the feature configuration from this requirement. Then it generates the source code of the reconfigured component according to this feature configuration. To accomplish this process, the component family in our tool should have the architecture of GenVoca that is one of the most influential generative programming approaches. In addition, XSLT scripts provide the code templates for implementation elements which are the ingredients of the target component. Taking the ‘Bank Account' component family as our example, we showed that our component reconfiguration tool produced automatically the component source code that the reuser wants to create. The result of this paper would be applied extensively for creasing the productivity of building the software product lines.

This paper describes how to implement reporting system for web-based information system. Reporting system is the S/W module that user is able to produce output of data in formal format. In Client/Server system, remote user can make formal output with client-side reporting component module. This client reporting component is usually system dependent. With web based information system, intranet, evolving, this client/server system need to he migrated to web-based reporting system. Reporting system component support multi-processing and real-time text/graphic output of server data. Ant Client can save or pint web page of client module. Especially, for real test its function and user interface, this reporting component is adopted in real network management system. The result shows that this reporting system component is very smart and excellent for real time web based monitoring system.

Reverse engineering is defined as the process where the internal structures and dynamics of a given system are inferred and analyzed from external observations and relevant knowledge. The first part of this paper surveys existing techniques for biosystem reverse engineering. Network structure inference techniques such as Correlation Matrix Construction (CMC), Boolean network and Bayesian network-based methods are explained. After the numeric and logical simulation techniques are briefly described, several representative working software tools were introduced. The second part presents our component-based software architecture for biosystem reverse engineering. After three design principles are established, a loosely coupled federation architecture consisting of 11 autonomous components is proposed along with their respective functions.

As robotics systems are becoming more complex there is the need to promote component based robot development, where systems can be constructed as the composition and integration of reusable building block. One of the most important challenges facing component based robot development is safeguarding against software component failures and malfunctions. The health monitoring of the robot software is most fundamental factors not only to manage system at runtime but also to analysis information of software component in design phase of the robot application. And also as a lot of monitoring events are occurred during the execution of the robot software components, a simple data treatment and efficient memory management method is required. In this paper, we propose an efficient events monitoring and data management method by modeling robot software component and monitoring factors based on robot software framework. The monitoring factors, such as component execution runtime exception, Input/Output data, execution time, checkpoint-rollback are deduced and the detail monitoring events are defined. Furthermore, we define event record and monitor record pool suitable for robot software components and propose a efficient data management method. To verify the effectiveness and usefulness of the proposed approach, a monitoring module and user interface has been implemented using OPRoS robot software framework. The proposed monitoring module can be used as monitoring tool to analysis the software components in robot design phase and plugged into self-healing system to monitor the system health status at runtime in robot systems.

This paper proposed a kind of software component specification method based on XML. We define a document type definition(DTD) of software component specification for the XML representation of a component. The semantic relationship of the component elements in diagrams of component specification must be Presented by the XML tag. This paper also designs the supporting tool for the representation of the software component specification.

In recent years, we recognize a new paradigm in the development process：From object oriented development, to the development process which has focused on the use of standard components. In recent years a lot of research related to the component-based development has been done, especially in business domain. but still there are many open and unresolved problems in this area. such as established development process for a distributed environment, formal process, infrastructure for COTS, development and management tool considering maintenance to guarantee a proper treatment of components. It also required a service and an application integration for component. In this paper, we propose cooperative information systems (CIS) that supports component based development. It must address for component based systems to achieve their full potential. We identify a set of CIS organized 3-tier which is a presentation layer, business logic layer and data control layer. We also discuss the specific roles and activities for the layers. we also define the behavior and managed information for business logic layer as core level. As an illustration of the CIS, we present a successful considerations which is widely helpful to user when they make decision in component development and assemble. Also, we expect to component reusability and efficiency in business domain.

Recently, above 50 percentages of software are being developed based on distributed application platforms. And recent technologies such as EJB(Enterprise Java Beans)[1]COM(Component Object Model)[2] CORBA(Common Object Request Broker Architecture)[3] have been advanced for distributed component-based software development . Therefore a systematic development process is necessary to develop component based applications using distributed application platforms. However, most of component-base software development processes do not define concrete flows between tasks and relationships among artifacts of each task Also, distribution issues are not considered explicitly in most of component-based software development In this paper, we present an approach to analyze and design software based on distributed components. In this approach, we propose systematic guidelines for developing a software based on Unified process and the relationships among artifacts which are produced, Also we explicitly consider the distribution issues such as performance, fault tolerance, security, distributed transaction of CORBA environments.
