“…A connector‐based materialization approach close in spirit to SAME is proposed by Heuzeroth et al (2001). The authors describe the so‐called ‘grey‐box connectors’ as static meta‐programs for component interactions, which are implemented with aspect‐oriented technology.…”

Software architectures are very important to capture early design decisions and reason about quality attributes of a system. Unfortunately, there are mismatches between the quality attributes prescribed by the architecture and those realized by its object-oriented implementation. The mismatches decrease the ability to reason architecturally about the system. Developing an object-oriented materialization that conforms to the original architecture depends on both the application of the right patterns and the developer's expertise. Since the space of allowed materializations can be really large, tool support for assisting the developer in the exploration of alternative materializations is of great help. In previous research, we developed a prototype for generating quality-preserving implementations of software architectures, using pre-compiled knowledge about architectural styles and frameworks. In this paper, we present a more flexible approach, called SAME, which focuses on the architectural connectors as the pillars for the materialization process. The SAME design assistant applies a case-based reasoning (CBR) metaphor to deal with connector-related materialization experiences and quality attributes. The CBR engine is able to recall and adapt past experiences to solve new materialization problems; thus SAME can take advantage of developers' knowledge. Preliminary experiments have shown that this approach can improve the exploration of object-oriented solutions that are still faithful to the architectural prescriptions.

Abstract. Software components can be connected by XML processing pipelines, which may perform adaptations. In our model, individual pipeline stages serialize source data structures to XML, perform one or multiple XSL transformations, transport the message to its destination and finally deserialize it to target data structures. Implementation of this model is open to optimizations. The present paper discusses two such optimizations: symbolic execution and lazy evaluation.

“…A port defines points in a component that provide data to its environment and require data from its environment, respectively. A connector defines out-port and in-port to be connected and specifies whether data is transported synchronously or asynchronously [4].…”

We detect design patterns in legacy code combining static and dynamic analyses. The analyses do not depend on coding or naming conventions. We classify potential pattern instances according to the evidence our analyses provide. We discuss our approach for the Observer, Composite, Mediator, Chain of Responsibility and Visitor Patterns. Our Java analysis tool analyzes Java programs. We evaluate our approach by applying the tool on itself and on the Java SwingSetExample using the Swing library.
