Abstract

Conventional OO methodologies have to provide a well-defined Component-based development (CBD) process by which the community of software engineers can properly derive executable software components from requirements in a systematic way. The move toward CBD requires existing OO conceptual modeling approaches to be reconsidered. In this paper, we present a proposal to support CBD in an OO Method based on a formal OO model. The key element of this proposal resides in the concept of execution model. The execution model defines a model and an architecture that provides a pattern to generate software components from OO conceptual models. Conceptual modeling patterns have a corresponding software representation in the quoted component-based architecture. The implementation of these mappings from problem space concepts to solution space representations opens the door to the generation of executable software components in an automated way.
