Component-based Development(CBD) based on the software reuse has been more attractive from software companies that want to enhance software productivity. However, since component identification process is mainly dependent on domain expert´s intuition and experience, it was very difficult to develop tools for supporting the component identification process. In this paper, we propose a systematic procedure of identifying reusable component by using object dependencies and object usages and provide a design and implementation of its supporting tool. In object-oriented domain models. there exists several diagrams which are described in different viewpoints. From these diagrams, object dependency and object usages are extracted and merged into an object dependency network, which is a basis for performing a comfonent identification algorithm. Finally, through a case study of internet banking system, we evaluate the applicability of the proposed identification process and tool.

The application of software engineering is not common in the development of astronomical observation system. While there were component-wise developments in the past, large-scale comprehensive system developments are more common in these days. In this study, current methodologies of development are reviewed to select a proper one for the development of astronomical observation system and the result of the application is presented. As the subject of this study, a project of operation software development for an astronomical observation system which runs on the ground is selected. And the output management technique based on Component Based Development which is one of the relatively recent methodologies has been applied. Since the nature of the system requires lots of arithmetic algorithms and it has great impact on the overall performance of the entire system, a prototype model is developed to verify major functions and performance. Consequently, it was possible to verify the compliance with the product requirements through the requirement tracing table and also it was possible to keep to the schedule. Besides, it was suggested that a few improvements could be possible based on the experience of the application of conventional output management technique. This study is the first application of the software development methodology in the domestic astronomical observation system area. The process and results of this study would contribute to the investigation for a more appropriate methodology in the area of similar system development.

Ubiquitous computing spans a very broad range of technologies and needs very complicated user's requirements. There are many scenarios and technologies involved in ubiquitous computing. We need new software development tools and methodology to meet the requirements. A software product line is one of promising new technology for it. A software product line is a set of software intensive systems that share a common, managed set of features satisfying the specific needs of a particular market segment or mission and that are developed from a common set of core assets. Software architecture-based development is the exploration and maturation of the role of software architecture in the product line life cycle. In this thesis, we identify the foundational concepts underlying software product lines and the essential activities to develop the mobile application systems. So, we define, design, and implement the Mobile Application System Architecture(MASA) that includes the development process for applying into mobile business domain and encompass scoping and gathering requirements for the Product line based on Component Based Development(CBD).

SCA (Software Communication Architecture), which has been adopted as a SDR(Software Defined Radio) Forum standard, provides a framework that successfully exploits common design patterns of embedded systems software. However, the SCA is inadequate as a component framework since it does not explicitly specify (1) a component model that defines how to express a component interface and how to implement it, (2) a package model that defines what and how to package in deployment units, and (3) a deployment model that defines the deployment environment and deployment process. In this paper, we propose a SCA-based component framework for SDR. Specifically, we present (1) a component model that defines a component as a specialized CORBA object that implements object management functionality, (2) a package model exploiting the existing XML descriptors of the SCA, and (3) a deployment model that defines a SCA-based deployment environment, a boot-up process that restores the deployment state, and a deployment process that supports lazy application instantiation and dynamic component replacement.

In the testing of a software component-based robot system, generating test cases for the system is a time-consuming and difficult task that requires the combining of test data. This paper proposes an adaptive combinatorial testing method which is based on the input/output relationship among components and which automatically generates the test cases for the system. The proposed algorithm first generates an input/output relationship graph in order to analyze the input/output relationship of the system. It then generates the reduced set of test cases according to the analyzed type of input/output relationship. To validate the proposed algorithm some comparisons are given in terms of the time complexity and the number of test cases.

Recently, many IT organizations develop software system with reusable component. Effective reusing of components increases software development productivity and quality. And, development of high quality component documents decrease maintenance problems, which are issues in component-based software development. In this paper, we propose a quality evaluation model of component development documents by empirical research. It consists of component quality reference model (CQRM) and quality evaluation model (CQEM). CQRM contains quality guidelines for component developers. CQEM contains evaluation guidelines for component consumers and distributors. We performed case study to verify this paper. Also, we presented quality improvement methods and improvement effects of component development documents. The quality evaluation model of component development documents proposed in this paper leads component development documents with high quality, and provides a rational quality evaluation model.

The general software configuration management system shows lack of the properties and features of software development environment for multimedia due to its wide range to be covered. Multimedia software development environment has properties like repetitive analysis and simulation using visual programming environment where, beside support of elementary development functions, component or library can be combined and tested interactively. Moreover, the method to look fast and effective for component having similar function is required. In this paper, we present the system which supports the software configuration management method for a simulation tool and the system for the properties in the multimedia software development environment. And we relate our system to real simulation tool so as to check its ability as the software configuration management system for multimedia software development environment.

Automotive systems have tended to be equipped with many electronic contents to satisfy safety, comport, convenience, and entertainment services over the past years. As a result, the amount of vehicle embedded software in electrical/electronic(E/E) systems is steadily increasing to manage these requirements. This leads to the traditional, document-based software development in the vehicle embedded systems being increasingly displaced by a model-based development in order to reduce software development time and cost. Due to the application of model-based development, a great evolution is being realized in the aspect of efficiency, but the development is being made without sufficient testing. So, erroneous automotive embedded software may cause serious problems such as car accidents which relate to human safety. Therefore, efficient methods for model-based test and validation are needed to improve software reliability in the stage of embedded software development. This paper presents the model-based development and test method for AUTOSAR embedded software to improve its reliability and safety, and it is demonstrated based on the case study.

Software product-lines methodology is the software development paradigm to build the target system by customizing the variable part of software assets according to requirements. To attain this, the commonalities and variabilities of the system family should be modeled explicitly at early stage. Although the researches on general software product-lines are active, the researches on component-based real-time embedded software product-lines are rather inactive. In this paper a code generation system to support the functional variabilities via feature model and generate the code for synchronization via state model is proposed to increase the productivity of the development of the real-time embedded software product-lines.
