Abstract: In order to make software components more flexible and reusable it is desirable to provide business users with facilities to assemble and control them, but without first being converted into programmers. We present our fully-functional prototype middleware system where variability is externalized so that core applications need not be altered for anticipated changes. Application behavior modification is fast and easy, suitable for a quickly changing e-commerce world.
