Connector modeling method for component extraction

As the component raises a principal factor in software engineering to ensure the productivity and reusability of the software, component extracting and implementation, component-based system construction, verification of component interfaces, and other related techniques raise significant issues in software engineering. As a reflex of this tendency, a connector model as a subsidiary tool is proposed to describe the interactions between components and software architecture. We propose a method that extracts the domain-specific components for a particular business domain using the connector model and specifies formal descriptions that explain the software architecture. The proposed component extraction method ensures the more earlier identification of components in the development cycle and decreases the number of potential modifications by making an estimate of the interfaces of a component. The formal description of software architecture gains a better understanding of architecture and also is used as a tool for verifying software at a higher abstraction level when changes take place
