Abstract

SCAF is a Simple Component Architecture Framework built upon OMG CORBA. Components are the core-modeling concept. Components describe their relationship with other components by means of interface provision and requirement descriptions. These interfaces are the connectors that configure the distributed application. SCAF supports dynamic composition and encapsulation of components and has a simple matching specification for retrieval of reusable components. It has been implemented in Python on top of an ORB (Object Request Broker) called Fnorb.
