We examine the usefulness of component-based software-engineering for the implementation of software communication systems. We present an architecture that allows to divide protocol software into fully decoupled components that can be plugged together using visual builder tools to rapidly prototype flexible, robust, and application-tailored communication protocols. We show the feasibility of component-based protocol engineering by demonstrating how a simple transport protocol was realized. A discussion about advantages and impacts concludes this paper.
