INTRODUCTION
CBSE embodies the “the ‘buy, don’t build’ philosophy".
Because of the extensive uses of components, the Component- Based Software Engineering (CBSE) process is quite different from that of the traditional waterfall approach.
It emphasizes on developing new software from pre-built components.
WHAT IS COMPONENT
A component is an independent software unit that can be composed with other components to create a software system.
Council and Heineman define a component as: “ A software element that conforms to a
component model and can be independently deployed and composed without modification accordingly to a composition standard”
COMPONENT CHARACTERISTICS
Independent: A component should be independent
Composable: It means that all external interactions must take place through publicly defined interfaces.
Deployable: A component has to be self-contained and must be able to operate as a stand-alone entity
FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPALS
Independent Software Development: Large software systems are necessarily assembled
from components developed by different people. To facilitate independent development, it is essential
to decouple developers and users of components. Reusability:
Some parts of a large system will necessarily be special-purpose software, it is essential to design and assemble pre-existing components in developing new components.
Software quality: A component or system needs to be shown to have
desired behavior, either through logical reasoning, tracing or testing.
TERMS & ATTRIBUTES USED IN SOFTWARE COMPONENT MODEL
Syntax: It refers to the ‘grammar’ or the rules followed in the code as per the specific programming language.
Semantics: It refers to the actual meaning and view of the components. A component is associated with a name, an interface and the body that includes the code.
Composition: This relates to the construction and working together of components.
COMPONENT BASED SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT
Component-based software development(CBSD) approach is based on the idea to develop software systems by selecting appropriate off-the-shelf components and then to assemble them with a well-defined software architecture.
The term component-based software development (CBD) can be referred to as the process for building a system using components.
LIFE CYCLE IN COMPONENT-BASED DEVELOPMENT
Requirements analysis Software architecture selection,
construction, analysis, and evaluation Component identification and
customization System integration System testing Software maintenance
PHASES OF COMPONENT DEVELOPMENT
System requirements Design the component Develop the component Testing
Functional or Black Box Testing, Structural or White Box Testing
METRIC USED IN CBSD
Software metrics are intended to measure software quality and performance characteristics quantitatively encountered during
the planning and execution of software development resource
and effort allocation, scheduling and product evaluation.
These can serve as measures of software products for the purpose of comparison, cost estimation, fault prediction and forecasting.
METRIC USED IN CBSD CONT…
Poulin presented a set of metrics used by IBM to estimate the efforts saved by reuse.
Reuse Percentage measures how much of the product can be attributed to reuse and is given as:- Product Reuse Percentage = (RSI / (RSI + SSI)) *
100% Where
SSI= Shipped Source Instructions RSI= Reused Source Instructions
METRIC USED IN CBSD CONT…
The second approach is a metric called Component Reusability level (CRL) to measure particular component’s reuse level per application in a CBSD.
This metric is again divided into two sub-metrics. First is CRLLOC, which is measured by using lines of code, and is expressed as percentage as given as:- CRL LOC ( C ) = (Reuse ( C ) / Size ( C )) *100%
BENEFITS IN CBSD
Management of Complexity Reduce Development Time Increased Productivity Improved Quality Reliability is increased since the components
have previously been tested in various contexts
Maintenance costs are reduced. Efficiency and flexibility is improved due to
the fact that components can easier be added or replaced
DIFFICULTIES IN CBSD Development of Components Quality of Components is questionable Lack of effective software matrix Component Maintenance Costs Reliability and Sensitivity to changes Unsatisfied Requirements
CBSE VS. TRADITIONAL SE
CBSE views the system as a set of off-the-shelf components integrated within an appropriate architecture.
SE seeks to create a system from scratch(building something without tools).
CBSE does not have any standard development models like UML for SE.
CBSE is young, therefore long term maintainability is largely unknown.
SE can fulfill requirements more easily. CBSE fulfillment of requirements is based on
the available components.
CBSE VS. TRADITIONAL SE-CONT..
CBSE Life Cycle is shorter.
CBSE is less expensive

CURRENT COMPONENT TECHNOLOGIES
CORBA: Common Object Request Broker Architecture
COM: Component Object Model IDL: Interface Description Language EJB: Enterprise JavaBeans (Java APIs)
APPLICATIONS This emerging component development
approach is being widely used in various distinct domains .
CONCLUSION
CBSD is an inevitable next wave solution that has potential to improve time-to-market and man power/cost trends that have been ongoing.
CBSD is best implemented using more modern software technologies like: COM JAVA EJB CORBA ActiveX
