Generalized extra-functional properties composition for component based system

摘要

Inclusion of extra-functional properties (EFPs) can enrich the quality of component based system design and development. However, such inclusion is a complex engineering task. Thus, we need to identify valid and formally specified extra-functional properties and their composition mechanism for component based model. This will facilitate the developer to identify the best design suits on the component based software development. Then we need to categorize the composition of EFPs accordingly as because the importance of EFPs will vary from one domain to another. In this paper, we have proposed a general guideline for inclusion of EFPs into a component model which facilitates the software developer to properly identify the extra-functional properties in different categories and make fit for reuse.
