Type Based Adaptation: An Adaptation Approach for Dynamic Distributed Systems

07/2007; DOI:10.1007/3-540-38093-0_9 pp.130-143

ABSTRACT Recently, component models have received much attention from the Software Engineering research community. The goal of each
of these models is to increase reuse and to simplify the implementation and composition of new software. While all these models
focus on the specification and packaging of components, however, they provide almost no support for their adaptation and composition.
This work still has to be done programmatically. In this paper we present Type Based Adaptation, a novel adaptation technique
that uses the type information available about a component. We also describe the design and implementation of our reference
implementation thereby verifying the feasibility of this approach.
