Abstract: Component based Software Engineering is the most common term nowadays in the field of software development. The CBSE approach is actually based on the principle of ‘Select and Use’ rather than ‘Design and Test’ as in traditional software development methods. Since this trend of using and ‘reusing’ components is in its developing stage, there are many advantages and problems as well that occur while use of components. Here is presented a series of papers that cover various important and integral issues in the field concerned. This paper is an introductory research on the essential concepts, principles and steps that underlie the available commercialized models in CBD. This research work has a scope extending to Component retrieval in repositories and their management and implementing the results verification.
