“…These include tools and techniques for automatically assembling components when given a detailed architecture description [17,11]. While these tools can resolve the semantic issues of integrating components whose interfaces mismatch, they again do not generate the architecture themselves.…”

One of the major challenges in the development of large component-based software systems is the system assembly problem: from a sea of available components, which should be selected and how should they be connected, integrated, and assembled so that the overall system requirements are satisfied? We present a powerful framework for automatically solving the system assembly problem directly from system requirements. Our framework includes an expressive language for declaratively describing system-level requirements, including component interfaces and dependencies, resource requirements, safety properties, objective functions, and various types of constraints. We show how to automatically solve system assembly problems using verification technology that takes advantage of current advances in Boolean satisfiability methods. We have implemented our techniques in the CoBaSA tool (Component-Based System Assembly), and we have successfully applied it to several large-scale industrial examples.

“…(Some of these actually impact the scalability of the MPI notation, which limits MPI's usefulness in describing communication in certain irregular parallel codes). Language-independent aspect weaving and transformation tools can be utilized to assist in such composition [3,4,11]. Model-driven techniques can also be integrated with a CCA approach such that a domain-specific modeling environment is used to connect and generate CCA-based applications.…”

“…From a component-based standpoint some projects [2][3][4] try to satisfy system NFRs through a model-driven process for selecting components to achieve systemic NFRs, and later configuring and deploying the selected components. Other projects from a more design-oriented approach [5][6][7][8] aim to generate implementations that satisfy multiples NFRs at once, starting out from design description at platform-independent (PIM) level; thus, NFRs must be modeled and solved at prior stages.…”

“…Some proposals [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9] extend MDA to deal explicitly with NFRs, especially from a perspective of components more than from detailed software design. Yet remains much work to be done: there is no traceability of decisions from NFRs to architecture to design and to final implementation, nor techniques to generate hybrid solutions that combine pre-existing components and ad-hoc development.…”

Abstract. Software architecture decisions hinge more on non-functional requirements (NFRs) than on functional ones, since the architecture stipulates which software to build. Model-Driven Architecture (MDA) aims to automate the derivation/generation of software from high level architectural specifications, but most current MDA implementations start from software design (i.e. how to build a software piece) rather than software architecture. This article presents an approach to extend MDA through the concepts of architectural policies and mechanisms. The key ideas are representation of NFRs through architectural concerns using architectural policies, systematic reification of policies into mechanisms, and multi-dimensional description of components as implementators of mechanisms. A detailed illustrative example is provided. Azimut framework realizes these ideas, supports larger-scale work through catalogs of policies and components, and allows traceability and reuse of architecture by enabling enabling these architecture-level descriptions and reasoning.
