If you've read anything at all about software components you will know at least two things: i) components are expected to solve the software reusability problem and ii) components are big, slugguish and opaque pieces of code.

The IST COMPARE project is set to change this last perception. This website has been created to disseminate COMPARE results but also to catalyse the creation of a community on embedded component technology.

The COMPARE project is being funded by the European Comission through project IST 004669, A COMPonent Approach to Real-time and Embedded. Get the COMPARE Flyer.
