A Critical Design Tradeoff
build (and thus design) buy or get for free (and thus fit into a design) November 14, 2018 – 02:52:53 © 2006 University of California, Irvine – André van der Hoek

A New Kind of Design Decision
Less fine control More learning and using and applying Similar to recovery November 14, 2018 – 02:52:53 © 2006 University of California, Irvine – André van der Hoek

Architectural Mismatch
Architectural mismatch stems from mismatched assumptions a reusable component makes about the system structure it is to be part of. Components functionality interfaces behavior control model Connectors protocols data model System topology Construction dependencies initialization Difficult to predict a-priori November 14, 2018 – 02:52:53 © 2006 University of California, Irvine – André van der Hoek

Components functionality interfaces behavior control model Connectors protocols data model System topology Construction dependencies initialization How much adaptation is too much adaptation?

Component Reuse Process
Identify preliminary architecture Identify potential places for reuse Establish selection criteria (per place) Update architecture Select component Evaluate components Search for applicable components November 14, 2018 – 02:52:53 © 2006 University of California, Irvine – André van der Hoek
18
Identify Preliminary Architecture
Largely as usual Familiarity with certain reusable components may influence the architectural choices being made November 14, 2018 – 02:52:53 © 2006 University of California, Irvine – André van der Hoek
19
Identify Potential Places for Reuse
There are components for just about anything graph layout database access regular expression handling numerical computing protein visualization speech recognition handling index and search maps geocoding … Do not be afraid to judiciously mark the architecture in terms of where reusable components may fit in November 14, 2018 – 02:52:53 © 2006 University of California, Irvine – André van der Hoek
20
Establish Selection Criteria (Per Place)
What kind of component does the architecture really need? functionality absolutely necessary versus desired functionality software qualities How is the component to fit with the rest of the architecture? some adaptation can be accommodated Investment cost future cost Reputation component provider component itself SLIDE NEEDS WORK November 14, 2018 – 02:52:53 © 2006 University of California, Irvine – André van der Hoek
21
Search for Applicable Components
Google is a wonderful thing code.google.com Component repositories rich in available components many junk some decent occasional gems Too many is no good Too few is no good either although one perfect component would solve the problem The cost of a design activity NEEDS WORK November 14, 2018 – 02:52:53 © 2006 University of California, Irvine – André van der Hoek

Evaluate Components Apply selection criteria to each of the components found beware of the platform, deployment needs, licensing terms matrix of criteria versus components Additional approaches trial / evaluation licenses reading component code examine sample programs using the component Examine the component’s documentation SLIDE NEEDS WORK November 14, 2018 – 02:52:53 © 2006 University of California, Irvine – André van der Hoek

Update Architecture Design any adapters necessary to fit the component Redesign other components as needed Restructure architecture as needed Consider implementers Special role in documentation Look what happened to Cake… NEEDS WORK November 14, 2018 – 02:52:53 © 2006 University of California, Irvine – André van der Hoek

Assignment 5 Research available components that provide a particular kind of functionality for a layered software design environment, set up selection criteria, and make a choice of the component that you believe is best Create a 15 minute presentation that describes your search process candidate components you found strengths weaknesses your selection criteria the component you deem best (and why) a (rough) architecture November 14, 2018 – 02:52:53 © 2006 University of California, Irvine – André van der Hoek
