Integration of object-oriented software components for distributed application software development

The process of component integration for distributed application software development requires identifying the candidate components and performing compatibility checks based on the functional as well as non-functional requirements of the target application software. Since these requirements vary, it is important that distributed components themselves provide a set of specific services to facilitate component integration. In this paper, an approach to component integration for distributed application software is given. An object-oriented distributed component framework and a distributed connector model are presented to facilitate component integration
