  • Abstract
    As we continue to move toward component-based software engineering, software development will become more like traditional manufacturing: developers will code less and design and integrate more. The author argues that to reap the benefits of component-based development: reduced time to market, more user choice, and lower costs, we must rethink our software maintenance strategies. He gives a wide-ranging overview of the maintenance challenges raised by component-based development
