Bridging Component Models and Integration problems

Component based software engineering promotes the use of software component as a cor- ner stone for new software. Taken from other manufacturing fields, the vision of selecting the components needed and building them as Lego to create a new software seems to of- fer enormous advantages for software development. Worldwide, industry and scholars are trying to remove the obstacles obstructing this course of action. This report names some of the problems that software integrators and developers face. It concentrates on low-level communication and other aspects of integration problems. it is based upon practical and theoretical research. the conclusion of the report is that while each problem can be solved in and of itself, these solutions often lead to the creation of new problems, and therefore leave ample room for further research
