COTS-Based Software Systems 4th International Conference, ICCBSS 2005, Bilbao, Spain, February 7-11, 2005, Proceedings

The theme “Build and Conquer” chosen for this year’s conference fully represents what we (the organizers) want to put across to the software community: software development is an engineering discipline, and not an artistic expression. Once we are ready to “build” our software systems using pieces pr...
