Software composition

Meer over het boek

The International Symposia on Software Composition aims to enhance research in component-based software development, addressing challenges in component development, reuse, verification, and composition. As software engineering evolves towards the reuse and recombination of components, the 2008 edition invited researchers to contribute on topics such as component adaptation techniques, composition languages, calculi, type systems, and emerging methods like aspect-oriented programming, service-oriented architectures, and mashups. Contributions were sought that bridge theory and practice, reflecting the symposium's ongoing commitment to both aspects. This volume contains the proceedings from the 7th International Symposium on Software Composition, held on March 29–30, 2008, in Budapest, Hungary, as part of the European Joint Conferences on Theory and Practice of Software (ETAPS). The symposium received 90 initial submissions globally, with 70 evaluated by a Program Committee of 30 international experts. Ultimately, 13 long papers and 6 short papers were selected for inclusion, each undergoing a rigorous revision process with three to five reviewers, ensuring high-quality publications for the event—a first in the symposium's history.
