Abstract

This paper introduces a development framework that constructs software by recombining the behavior rather than the structure of the system. It would thus be possible to develop trusted scenarios that we call behavior sequences. System behavior then may be changed by changing some scenarios. We believe that our framework allows more confidence in evolution of software because the behavior of the system is entirely specified and tested upfront in the development process. Moreover, adaptation schemes are flexible since they rely on behaviors rather than components, which is the case in many approaches for software adaptation, which often use a structural perspective.
