PUTRACOM: a concurrent component model with exogenous connectors

In component-based development (CBD), composing components and controlling the interactions among them is not a trivial task. The composition and interaction styles in the current state-of-the-art component-based models mostly are port-to-port connection or method-call based. However, both styles co...
