The software industry is facing more complex computer systems, with short development and sustainability issues. To deliver good software with these constraints, software reuse has become a central concept for minimizing design and realization costs. This study improves upon Feature-Oriented Reuse Method with Business Component Semantics (FORM/BCS), a software development method that produces adaptable architectures from reusable domain components. This is a promising method for reusable software assets and model creation. The objective of the FORM/BCS is to bring the industrial production chain to the software. This study proposes a model to automatically transform the FORM/BCS business subsystem component into a process business component. Two metamodels for business subsystems and process business components were developed. In addition, this study establishes correspondences between the source metamodel and target metamodel classes, transformation rules, and the instance of the source metamodel and generates the target metamodel instance. Detailed findings can help practitioners reduce software design costs and development time, and contribute to the advancement of knowledge in software engineering.

A Rewriting System Based Operational Semantics for the Feature Oriented Reuse Method

Recently, an extension of the Feature Oriented Reuse Method (FORM) with business components semantics (FORM/BCS) has been given. The key idea of FORM/BCS is that, it transforms the assets produced by FORM (feature models, subsystem models, process models and modules) into reusable objects of a domain (business reusable components). Since each individual business reusable component is a constituent of a business architecture (i.e a model of a domain), FORM/BCS is therefore a model-driven design engineering method whose main products are business reusable architectures. The engineering process of FORM/BCS has been formalized using a set of total maps (called constructors and refiners). This paper shows that these maps are in fact rules of a coherent rewriting system which, indeed, defines the operational semantics of FORM/BCS.
