ab: Summary: The application of run-time reconfigurable component models to
    networked embedded systems has a number of significant advantages such
    as encouraging software reuse, adaptation to dynamic environmental
    conditions and management of changing application demands. However,
    reconfiguration at the granularity of components is inherently
    heavy-weight and thus costly in embedded scenarios. This paper argues
    that in some cases component-based reconfiguration imposes an
    unnecessary overhead and that more fine-grained support for the
    tailoring of component functionality is required. This paper advocates
    for a high-level policy-based approach to tailoring component
    functionality. To that end, we introduce a lightweight framework that
    supports fine-grained adaptation of component functionality based upon
    high-level policy specifications. We have realized and evaluated a
    prototype of this framework for the LooCI component model.
