An Effective Approach for Evaluation and Selection of Component

Abstract

The main objective of the research is to find the best optimal component and define the evaluation criteria for the reusable software component from the component repository that increases the quality of software component, reliability and also reduces the software development cost. In current scenario of the software development the main factors like time and cost for the component selection is too short and is also very difficult to identify the best matching component from the component repository. Various research and methodologies for the best optimal component selection models are exist with relevant to the data validation and verification to translate the annotated models into component performance. The decisions are often taken on temporary basis for the component selection from the component repository. The pre existing methodologies and processes for the component evaluation and selection does not meet the characteristics and evaluation of the functional and non-functional requirements. An effective solution for the evaluation and selection of the reusable software component from the component repository is a very hot issue for the software development community. In this paper the research will concentrate on the issue that belongs to the evaluation and selection process to find the best optimal component from the component repository by using the genetic algorithms.
