Abstract
Modern systems in the field of document recognition, document analysis and document understanding have to be built in a short amount of time, with a low budget and have to comply to the functional and non-functional requirements of the customers. Traditional software engineering methods cannot cope with these challenges in an adequate way. The component-approach promises to be a solution for the efficient development of high-quality systems. The paper describes the basics of the component-approach and its application to the area of recognition systems. Special attention is paid to component technologies, the integration of heterogeneous systems by using wrapping techniques and the central issue of component reuse. The works in this paper have been part of the project Adaptive READ which was funded by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research.
