MICOSE4aPS: Industrially Applicable Maturity Metric to Improve Systematic Reuse of Control Software

Towards Systematic Reuse of Metric Specifications

This paper presents a novel approach for reusing metrics. Contrasting a lot of work related to this issue, we are focusing on reusing metric specifications. By introducing reusability concepts such as genericity and variation points to metric specification we enable the creation of reusable ones. On the other hand this allows deriving project specific concrete metrics based on reusable metric s...

Software Architectures to Improve the Eeectiveness of Reuse Techniques

Gains of productivity through software reuse require important eeorts for the construction of general-purpose high-level abstractions for reusable software artifacts through systematic approaches to Domain Engineering techniques. This paper sugggests general-purpose software architectures as appropriate abstractions to achieve this goal. 1 Background Rosario Girardi has been working in software...

Introducing Systematic Reuse in Mainstream Software Process

Software reuse is accepted as a source of important benefits, expressed in productivity and quality terms, when an industrial approach is introduced in the software process. However, mainstream software processes such as Unified Process do not include reuse techniques among the tools that software engineers must deal with. In this paper, we present a proposal to introduce software reuse with mi...

Incentive compatibility and systematic software reuse

Systematic software reuse has emerged as a promising route to improved software development productivity and quality. Many large corporations have initiated systematic reuse programs, and many reuse frameworks have been developed to guide organizations in these efforts. Yet, in spite of this, systematic reuse in practice has been difficult to achieve. In this article we argue that a key inhibit...
