| Abstract |
| Plug-ins are a common mechanism for extending applications, and have recently become popular as the building blocks for whole applications in so-called pure plug-in architectures. How are these architectures related to software components? In this paper, we propose that plug-in architectures can be seen as an architectural style for component software. We discuss the architectural elements and properties of this style and describe how the style can be specialized in domain-specific ways. |
