Abstract:

The development of complex software systems is more and more turned into a process of integrating components that have been developed independently of each other. Applications are rarely implemented from scratch. However, the increasing importance of components is not well supported by object-oriented languages as they lack integration-oriented constructs.

JADE is an integration-oriented extension of the Java programming language. It currently supports decorating an existing component modeling a data structure with concern behaviour defined in frameworks with template methods. This integration certainly takes place without any source code modification - instead, the Pluggable Composite Adapter pattern is used.

Research at the moment includes formulating a type system for JADE and improving the integration abilities of the language extension.
