Abstract

Nowadays, component-oriented approaches are being promoted by tool providers as a way to enhance the modularity and the reuse of software pieces. Moreover, there are distinct levels of abstraction where components can be defined. The EDOC specification [5] is a high-level approach that introduces composition independently of any middleware platform, while the CCM specification [3] extends the CORBA middleware to simplify the implementation of concrete software components. This paper will focus on the problem of how to specify mapping from component abstract models into more concrete component models. Moreover, we will present a model transformation language called MTrans that can be used to specify comprehensive mappings that can be automated in an ambiguous way.
