| Abstract: |
Background to Component Architecture As discussed in the previous paper, components are, by definition, part of a larger structure, an element contributing to the composition of the whole, with stable well-defined interfaces. To establish a component-based environment, therefore, it is essential that the larger structure is understood, sufficient that, at least, the interdependencies between the components are defined. If they are designed correctly, component-based applications will enable plug-and-play components. This facilitates development and upgrade of application components on an asynchronous basis, providing more effective development and faster response to business requirements. Co |
