Software reuse and especially the paradigm of software components are promising approaches to increase the efficiency of software development. One of the basic problems of software reuse, however, is the tradeoff between the abstraction from project-specific aspects and the actual contribution of a reusable artifact. Stringent resource constraints further complicate the application of these approaches in domains, where efficient and therefore specialized solutions are required, e.g. in the domain of embedded systems. Generic components - designed to be adaptable to new application scenarios - allow to overcome these limitations, esp. if they automate the essential modifications. This paper presents a concept of generic components that has been developed to facilitate the construction of highly specialized embedded operating systems. Besides the illustration of the underlying concept, the paper discusses the external representation of generic components and the internal realization of the required variability and reflects some of our experiences in constructing generic components.
