One component doesn’t behavior correctly or it should be updated Solution: ? Use contracts as access point ? Make comparison with contracts to select a component which has same functionalities and provide same or better quality Automatic comparison Manual comparison A C B D NEW ? A C D NEW contract Replacement July 26,2007 ECE 750-11 CBSS Presentation II 4 Background Contract extraction ? Contracts are not a part of modern software engineering and they are not defined explicit in most languages. Existing extraction methods ? Static: which examines source code and documentation, etc.; ? Dynamic: which is based on examination of component’s execution. July 26,2007 ECE 750-11 CBSS Presentation II 5 Approach Apply semi-automatic method to extract contracts from Duke’s Bank application; Put these contracts into a XML directory to form a contract repository; Simulate Autonomic Manager to make comparison between contracts in the repository to decide which component is better. Duke’s Bank RAlternative Running Repository Extraction Comparison components July 26,2007 ECE 750-11 CBSS Presentation II 6 Application domain Client layer: ? Application client Administer customers and accounts ? Web client: Used by customers to access account to get information and perform operations Server layer: ? Session bean ? Entity bean DB: ? Store data of client Duke’s Bank ap
