Modeling and Analysis of Non-functional Properties in Component-based Systems

AbstractThis paper discusses methodologies for the specification and analysis of performance related properties of components and assemblies of components, and outlines an original approach, called the CB-SPE, for component-based software performance engineering. The proposed approach relies on, and adapts to a CB framework, the concepts and steps of the SPE technology, and uses for modeling the standard RT-UML profile, reshaped according to the CB principles
