Abstract:
Service Component Architecture (SCA) is a recent approach and an industry standard for developing complex and distributed systems. Despite the growing research work it still lacks a formal basis for handling trust and reliability of quality-driven systems. In this paper, we present main techniques and models for assuring quality and trustworthiness of component-based systems in general, and then we present our contract-aware service component meta model. We propose a multilevel contract model that aims to address reliability and quality issues for service component oriented systems by expressing a set of its properties and constraints.
