As a solution to eliminating component mismatches, a generative aspect- oriented approach to component adaptation is presented. The approach enjoys high level of automation and capability of deep level adaptation, which is achieved in an aspect-oriented component adaptation framework by generating and then applying the adaptation aspects under designed weaving process. The aspect generation mechanism facilitates the creation of adaptation aspects that support specific adaptation requirements. An expandable repository of reusable adaptation aspects has been developed based on the proposed two-dimensional aspect model. A prototype tool is built to as a leverage of the approach.
