whitepaper Parallel Branching Strategies in Software Configuration Management0000-00-00 MKS
  Software development organizations use branching strategies for many reasons, including post-release maintenance, and component-based or custom development. When establishing a branching and merging strategy there are many things to consider. A primary consideration includes the SCM tool that one chooses to do the branching - for instance, not all tools support branching, and different tools support branching in different ways. This webcast takes a theoretical look at branching concepts and strategies and shows a live demonstration of MKS Source Integrity Enterprise's robust support for parallel branching and 3-way merging.

whitepaper MultiSplitPane: Splitting Without Nesting2006-03-23 Sun Microsystems
  This paper focuses on MultiSplitPane basics: how to use it, how the layout algorithm works, and how to save and restore layouts using the standard java.beans persistence API. MultiSplitPane does have other features and capabilities that a user can learn about by surveying the Javadoc. MultiSplitPane is not a general purpose docking framework. It's a Swing container that just supports a resizable tiled layout of arbitrary components.

whitepaper On Demand Event: SOA and Business Process Management: Better Together2006-03-08 IBM
  Check out this on-demand Webcast from IBM to hear noted industry analyst Jasmine Noel describe the evolution of business process management (BPM) and its integration with service-oriented architecture (SOA). Noel explains how SOA is allowing companies to implement process automation with greater speed and agility than ever before. You'll learn:
  • How SOA and BPM technologies complement each other
  • Why processes must become independent of specific information resources and specific task automation applications
  • How standards-based SOA works, including its ability to create process independence
  • How the integration of BPM and SOA facilitate "managed flexibility"

whitepaper Woodfrog: A Persistence Library for Smartfrog Components2006-03-01 Hewlett-Packard (HP)
  This paper introduces Woodfrog, a library that provides persistence properties to Smartfrog components. As arctic wood frogs do to survive cold winters, the library "Freezes" a component when there is a system failure so that its internal state can be recovered and the execution resumed after the fault is overcome. Moreover, as part of the "Thawing" process, references to the recovered component in other system objects are transparently restored. The library is implemented in a modular way with three very distinct tasks: stable state maintenance, component recovery and reference update. All these tasks can be overwritten and implemented using different algorithms, which allows the user to choose mechanisms more suitable to the application being deployed.

whitepaper Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) Vs. Component Based Architecture2006-02-13 Vienna University of Technology
  SOA is a buzzword and topic for many discussions in nearly every professional journal and conference. Opinions differ from "Some technical rubbish" to "The technology of the future". The problem about these different opinions partly depend on another problem: What precisely is SOA? Whatever it is and will be, it seems to become the next step in the evolution of software architecture.

whitepaper Component Inheritance in EJB 2.02005-10-25 Sun Microsystems
  Component-based architectures eliminate a number of the limitations of object-oriented development. Enterprise JavaBeans (EJB) components offer a greater base for reuse and integration for Java developers than POJOs. However, to make the most of what they offer requires a shift in focus from development-oriented programming to the more flexible realm of deployment-oriented programming. Recognizing the component aspects of EJBs will improve the application design and allow a user to take advantage of their power. This will also prepare the user for the day when inheritance is finally added to the EJB specification.

whitepaper Chasing Silver Bullets: Realities of Software Factories and Component Based Development2005-09-14 Cogitance
  Developers are continually separating fact from hype, learning to integrate new tools within existing frameworks, and when proven effective leverage new processes along the way. The goal of this paper is to elucidate what component based development really means for developers. Specifically, what are the risks, rewards, and responsibilities of using components, how does it relate to one's existing design and development models and tools, and how can developers use components to their competitive advantage.

whitepaper Architecture of Component-Based Information Systems Over the J2EE Platform2005-08-01 UdelaR
  Component-based development can be addressed from two different fronts, or more precisely, from two different levels. One of them regards the technology used for system implementation, and the other is a previous and more abstract level, where the focus is set to the logical structure of the solution and where technological issues are not considered. Model Driven Architecture promotes such separation by distinguishing platform independent models from platform specific models. In alignment with this approach, this paper proposes a mapping from the tiered and platform independent architecture for information systems resulting from the application of a widely known methodological approach, to the available constructs in the J2EE platform.

whitepaper A Component-Based Product Development Process for a Workflow Management System Product Line2005-06-23 PUC-RIO
  The product line approach has been pointed out as a means to improve software organization's productivity. It offers both technical and managerial support to design applications for a specific domain from a well-defined infrastructure. A specific application can be developed from this infrastructure by customizing its variable aspects. This paper presents a process to develop members of a component-based product line for Workflow Management Systems (WfMS). The activities of the process are described within the context of a case study that develops a WfMS to manage service orders in a software house.
