Abstract

The performance of a component can significantly influence the overall performance of the system being developed in the component based software development. Existing performance measurement tools for components are often built specific to the component model or middleware. One disadvantage of this approach is that when the system is moved to a new platform during the life-cycle of the system, the measurement tools also need to be adapted. A similar problem is observed when components built for different platforms are integrated with a new integration technology like Web Services. This paper presents a new model for measuring component performances, which is independent of particular component models or middleware. This method presents a interoperability for each performance data by model transformation process from middleware independent performance measuring models to middleware dependent performance measuring models. Our model allows objective performance data to be obtained that can be used to compare performances of components based on different component models or middleware platforms.

컴포넌트 기반 소프트웨어에서는 사용될 컴포넌트의 성능이 개발되는 소프트웨어의 품질 확보에 있어서 매우 중요한 요소이다. 컴포넌트 성능에는 흔히 컴포넌트 모델이나 미들웨어에 종속적인 성능측정 도구가 이용된다. 이러한 성능측정 방법에서는 소프트웨어의 개발환경이 변경될 경우 측정 도구도 함께 수정되어야 한다는 문제점을 가지고 있다. 또한, 여러 가지 다른 모델의 컴포넌트들을 한 시스템으로 통합하는 경우에도 유사한 어려움이 존재한다. 본 논문은 이러한 문제에 대한 해결 방법으로 컴포넌트 모델이나 미들웨어에 독립적인 성능측정 방법을 제안한다. 제안된 방법은 미들웨어에 공통적으로 적용 가능한 성능측정기 모델에서 특정 미들웨어를 위한 성능측정기 모델로의 모델변환 과정을 통해 성능데이타간의 상호운용성을 보장한다. 이 방법을 이용하면 동일한 컴포넌트 모델에 따른 컴포넌트들뿐만 아니라 서로 다른 컴포넌트 모델을 기반으로 하는 컴포넌트들에 대한 성능측정이 가능하다.
