Abstract :
Component Based Software Engineering (CBSE) is a technique for designing and assembling systems from existing parts that has important implications for a number of software engineering practices. The basic principles of CBSE, including modularity, substitutability, and composition are important throughout the SE curriculum. The ability to build a component and have confidence that it will function predictably in different environments requires a variety of skills. In this paper we present hands-on projects that use the recently released SEI PSK tool suite to implement exercises in several courses across the computing curriculum, including courses in: software engineering, computational theory, operating systems, programming languages, and verification and validation.
