Analysis of Component Integration in Component-based Development Paradigm

Component-based software development is achieving more popularity in today’s software development community due to the increasing complexity of software systems, increasing costs of maintenance, and decreasing costs of underlying hardware. Business organizations therefore prefer to build their systems from previously built components which means they should concentrate more on selecting and composing components than manually adopt software systems. As the popularity of such approaches grows, commercial software vendors tend to develop more commercial software components and connectors. In this paper, an effort has been made to analyze various component integration techniques with respect to component-based software development.
