Abstract

Grammar-oriented Object Design was shown to be a potent combination of extending methods, incorporating DSLs from a given business domain (BDSLs) and Variation-oriented Design in order to provide a seamless transition from business models to component-based software architectures. GOOD starts by extending current object modeling techniques to include the discovery and explicit modeling of higher levels of reuse, starting from subsystems, defining their manners using a domain-specific business language, i.e., using use-case gramars, that describe the rules governing the creation, dynamic configuration and collaboration of large-grained, business-process-scale, adaptive software components with pluggable behavior, through the application of architectural patterns and representation of component manners in the BDSL. 1his presents immense potential for applications in the domains of grid services, services on demand and a utility-based model of computing where a business need initiates the convergence of application components based on/from the manners of services they provide and require.
