Abstract

This work is part of a series referring to COMDEVALCO - a framework for Software Component Definition, Validation, and Composition. Its constituents are: a modeling language, a component repository and a set of tools. This is the first paper describing the object-oriented modeling language, which contains finegrained constructions, aimed to give a precise description of software components. The current status of the language reflects the procedural paradigm constructs.
