Abstract :
Presents a distributed software component hub model for reusable software component management, with LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol) operations and controls. We first briefly discusses the emerging software component technology and its current major research issues. Then we describe the method of using a distributed component hub for effectively resolving the hassles in reusable software-component repository management and retrieval. We specify the overall distributed component hub´s framework and its design architecture. The hub´s core mechanisms show how the reusable software-component repository and retrieval can be effectively managed with the distributed component hub framework. Experiments demonstrate the model´s promise
