Research on Component Retrieval Methods

With the development of the component technology and the expansion of component library, representing and retrieving components, the two core technologies of component library management have been a focus on research hot issues in researches. Based on the present widely-used component faceted classification description method and its features, and from the different requirements and ways of component retrieval that were used by component re-users, three component retrieval ways based on browser, facet and term, the five corresponding matching models and two matching algorithms are proposed. The theoretical analysis and experimental results show that the three kinds of retrieval methods used in large-scale component library component retrieval, will meet the component reuse of various searching requirements and that these ways are feasible in retrieval efficiency..
