Integrating aspects and reusable components: An archetype driven methodology

Abstract

The proposed work focuses on developing a methodology that promotes software development by partitioning the whole system into different independent components and aspects. This facilitates component reuse along with the ease of modeling the components separately and emphasizing on the concerns that the widely used OOP paradigm has failed to address. Identification of reusable components is carried out using the hybrid methodology and aspects are identified by the domain experts. Along with the components the platform independent models and aspects developed are stored in separate repositories so as to be used in development of other software of similar requirements and basic structure. © 2011 Springer-Verlag.
