Abstract
Reusing and adapting existing components is the central topic of component-based development. The major differences between the existing approaches concern the models used to represent the components and the detail given to generate the adapters. In this paper, we present our approach which bases on the hierarchy to generate the adapters. Our components are modelled using SysML blocks and their interaction protocols are modelled using SysML Sequence Diagrams (SDs). We have used coloured Petri nets as formal model to define the adaptation rules, and we have based on meta-modelling and model transformation to implement these rules. We illustrate our approach through a case study.
