Abstract

A lot of current approaches attempt to enrich software systems with extra-functional properties. These attempts become remarkably important with the gradual adoption of component-based programming. Typically, extrafunctional properties need to be taken into account in the phase of component binding and therefore included in the process of verifying component compatibility. Although a lot of research has been done, practical usage of extra-functional properties is still rather scarce. The main problem could be in a slow adaptability of specialized research models to rapidly changing industrial needs. We have designed a solution to this issue in the form of a modular framework which provides a formally sound yet practical means to declare, assign and evaluate extra-functional properties in the context of component-based applications. One of its strengths is applicability to a variety of industrial as well as research component models. This paper describes the models and algorithms of the framework and introduces a prototype implementation proving the concept.
