• Examples: database, compiler ( e.g. Draco), blackboard architecture, user interface architecture.

• Abstraction: from application domains

• Selection: similar to software libraries

• Specialization: source-to-source transformations, component refinements

• Integration: integrates components into a single framework.

• Cognitive distance: small when used appropriately.
