Software projects involving integration of multiple commercial as well as in-house components, often confront interoperability problems. This is a result of the component selection process being limited to piecewise evaluation of system capabilities while neglecting a more thorough evaluation of interoperability between candidate components. Such problems often lead to increased costs and schedule overruns. Based on empirical data gathered from five years of developing e-services applications at USC-CSE, we have developed and applied a method for component selection that focuses on piecewise evaluation, as well as the interoperability between the candidate components. In this paper we describe the method and present a real-world example showing how it operates within the spiral process model generator.
