Course Curriculum

Module 1: Introduction to Component-Based Architecture (CBA)

  • Defining Component-Based Architecture: Understanding the fundamental concepts and principles.
  • Benefits of CBA: Exploring scalability, maintainability, reusability, and reduced development time.
  • Challenges of CBA: Addressing complexity, integration, and governance.
  • Component Models: An overview of different component models (e.g., CORBA, COM, EJB, OSGi).
  • Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) and CBA: Examining the relationship and differences.
  • Microservices and CBA: Investigating how microservices leverage component-based principles.
  • Enterprise Architecture and CBA: Aligning CBA with overall enterprise architectural goals.
  • Historical Evolution of CBA: Tracing the origins and development of component-based approaches.

Module 2: Core Component Concepts

  • Component Definition: Deep dive into what constitutes a well-defined component.
  • Interfaces: Understanding the role of interfaces in component interaction and contract definition.
  • Ports: Exploring different types of ports and their use in connecting components.
  • Connectors: Examining various connector types and their impact on system performance.
  • Contracts: Defining pre- and post-conditions, invariants, and other contract elements.
  • Dependencies: Managing component dependencies effectively to avoid tight coupling.
  • Composition: Assembling components to create larger systems and applications.
  • Versioning: Strategies for managing component versions and ensuring compatibility.

Module 3: Component Design Principles

  • Abstraction: Hiding implementation details and exposing only necessary interfaces.
  • Encapsulation: Protecting internal component state and behavior.
  • Loose Coupling: Minimizing dependencies between components.
  • High Cohesion: Ensuring that components have a single, well-defined purpose.
  • Separation of Concerns: Dividing responsibilities into distinct components.
  • Single Responsibility Principle (SRP): Each component should have one, and only one, reason to change.
  • Open/Closed Principle (OCP): Components should be open for extension but closed for modification.
  • Liskov Substitution Principle (LSP): Subtypes should be substitutable for their base types.
  • Interface Segregation Principle (ISP): Clients should not be forced to depend on methods they do not use.
  • Dependency Inversion Principle (DIP): High-level modules should not depend on low-level modules. Both should depend on abstractions.
