Abstract

Optimizing is a fundamental concept in our modern mature economy. Software development also follows this trend and, as a consequence, new techniques are appearing over the years. Among those we find services oriented computing and component based development. The first gives the adequate structure and flexibility required in the development of large industrial software developments, the second allows recycling of generically developed code. This paper is at the borders of these paradigms and constitutes an attempt to integrate components into service-oriented modelling. Indeed, when developing huge multi-actor application packages, solutions to specific problems should be custom developed while others can be found in third party offers. FaMOS-C, the framework proposed in this paper, allows modelling such problems and directly integrates a selection process among different components based on their performance in functional and non-functional aspects. The framework is firstly depicted and then evaluated on a case study in supply chain management.
