Abstract

Current software component models insufficiently reflect the different stages of component life-cycle, which involves design, implementation, deployment, and runtime. Therefore, reasoning techniques for component-based models (e.g., protocol checking, QoS predictions, etc.) are often limited to a particular life-cycle stage. We propose modelling software components in different design stages, after implemenatation, and during deployment. Abstract models for newly designed components can be combined with refined models for already implemented components. As a proof-of-concept, we have implemented the new modelling techniques as part of our Palladio Component Model (PCM).
