Component Based Software Engineering: Methods and Metrics focuses on a specialized branch of the vast domain of software engineering, that is, Component-based software engineering (CBSE). This book enhances the basic understanding of components by defining categories, characteristics, repository, interaction, complexity and composition. It divides the research domain of CBSE into three major sub-domains: Reusability issues, Interaction and integration issues and Testing and reliability issues. This book covers the state-of-art literature survey of atleast 20 years in the domain of reusability, interaction and integration complexities, testing and reliability issues of component-based software engineering. The aim of this book is not only to review and analyze the previous works conducted by eminent researchers, academicians and organizations in the context of CBSE, but also suggests innovative, efficient and better solutions. A rigorous and critical survey of traditional and advanced paradigms of software engineering is provided in the book. Features: In-interactions and Out-Interactions both are covered to assess the complexity. In the context of CBSE both white-box and black-box testing methods and their metrics are described. This work covers reliability estimation using reusability which is an innovative method. Case studies and real life software examples are used to explore the problems and their solutions. Students, research scholars, software developers and software designers or individuals interested in software engineering, especially in component-based software engineering can refer this book to understand the concepts from the scratch. These measures and metrics can be used to estimate the software before the actual coding commences.
