The word is a neologism that combines komponentti (component) with a derivational form that signals a focus on the components and their interactions. It is encountered in discussions of modular design, component-based approaches, and systems engineering.
In software engineering, komponenttiaan describes approaches that evaluate software by examining individual modules, their interfaces, responsibilities,
In hardware and electronics, the term is used to refer to component-level performance metrics, such as a
