Abstract

Components and connections are the basis of the CCA model, whereas the way which ports are connected to each other is left unspecified. Due to this characteristic, CCA is seen as a low-level component model in a including models that support more sophisticated connections. In this paper, we use the notion of endogenous and exogenous connectors to designate software artifacts that are meant to encapsulate interaction among components at high-level of the component models. Therefore, we describe implementations of exogenous and endogenous connectors with CCA components and their use in some high performance computing applications. Furthermore, we discuss how these implementations can be used to implement some models of parallel computations.
