Editing Semantic Component Composition with Conceptual Contracts

Title: Semantic Component Composition with Conceptual Contracts

Research Question: How can conceptual contracts be used to improve the composition of semantic components in complex software systems?

Methodology: The study uses a kind theory, a logic for describing open, collaborative, and reusable assets. It proposes a new algorithm that automatically determines whether two components can interoperate, regardless of their syntax or model. The algorithm generates adapters necessary for component composition.

Results: The research demonstrates that conceptual contracts can significantly improve the semantic composition of components. It also shows that the proposed algorithm can automatically determine compatibility between components, reducing the time and effort required for their integration.

Implications: The study suggests that conceptual contracts can be used to create more robust, documented, and easier-to-build complex software systems. It also highlights the potential of kind theory in improving the semantic composition of components.
