Integration implies a primary task on component-based development. From a system architecture, off-the-shelf components are selected to satisfy functionality. A general integration process may include component ‘qualification’, ‘adaptation’, and ‘composition’. We are currently interested on automation of the qualification phase. Our intent is to ‘integrate’ into an infrastructure a ‘component evaluation process’. Thus applications could be dynamically created from component assembly and then integrated into the underlying infrastructure. In this paper we also report other approaches that fulfil some of that general phases, and we highlight methods, and techniques that were applied. Since the quality of a product depends on the quality of a process, we look for achieving a sound integration process to achieve reliability on component-based systems.
