ABSTRACT:
In the process of hierarchical composition of software component types, the reusability of software component types is improved through the “promotion of features”. That is, a feature of an instance of a predetermined software component type may be promoted to a software component type containing instances of the predetermined software component type. The promoted feature may then be customized when the containing software component type is instantiated.
