Although software reuse repository systems have been an active research area for more than a decade, one important aspect has not been given enough attention: If software developers make no attempt to reuse, repository systems offer no help and reuse will not happen. Active information delivery, which presents information without being given explicit queries can motivate software developers to ...

ÐThis paper reports on an empirical research based on two software products. The research goal is to ascertain the impact of the adoption of a reuse policy on customer satisfaction. The results show that when a systematic reuse policy is implemented, such as the adoption of a domain specific library, 1) reuse is significantly positively correlated with customer satisfaction and 2) there is a si...

At present, serveral feature meta-models have been come up with. However, they can’t meet the requirements of dynamic Internet environment or software reuse. This paper proposes a feature meta-model based on ontology as well as its formal description. Meanwhile, FTM (Flexible Transaction Model) mechanism is considered. In particular, it is adaptable to the changes in dynamic environment and can...

Many approaches such as component technologies have been invented in order to support software reuse. Based on these technologies a large variety of techniques have been introduced to connect components. However, there is little experience concerning the validation of component systems. We know how to plug components together, but we do need ways to check whether that works. In this paper we in...

In contrast to current practices where software reuse is applied recursively and reusable assets are tailored trough parameterization or specialization, existing reuse economic models assume that (i) the cost of reusing a software asset depends on its size and (ii) reusable assets are developed from scratch. The contribution of this paper is that it provides modeling elements and an economic mo...

With economic pressures to deliver software applications at a faster rate and at lower cost, software reuse is becoming a significant technology for software development. This paper focuses on deriving a descriptive and explanatory theory concerning the individual and organizational barriers associated with the adoption of reuse. A case-study research method was used. A series of five cases wer...

Community Z Tools (CZT) is an integrated framework for the Z formal specification language. In this paper, we show how it is also designed to support extensions of Z, in a way that minimises the work required to build a new Z extension. The goals of the framework are to maximise extensibility and reuse, and minimise code duplication and maintenance effort. To achieve these goals, CZT uses a var...

Inheriting code which includes concurrent constructs causes a set of problems , collectively known as inheritance anomaly. This is why protected tagged types do not exist in Ada 95. Anyway, code can be written in Ada 95 which allows to safely reuse and extend the state and code encapsulated in a protected type. On the other hand, extending by adding new operations is more diicult, due to the in...

Software Reuse and re-engineering is a complex subject that is highly knowledge-intensive. It is an important way to reduce software cost and to make programmers and designer more efficient.An Object Oriented framework is a set of cooperating classes,both abstract and concrete classes and may be the solution for a family of related problem..This paper proposes the framework technique , Highly C...
