software reuse, software reuse library, hypertext, automated linking The goal of this project is to explore techniques for making software reuse effective. As the development of large software systems continues, the idea of reusing software from previous applications becomes attractive as a means for improving productivity and increasing software quality. Important to such goals is the availabi...

In this paper, I describe the theoretical background that led to the creation of software for interactive dance performance that interprets rhythm in dance movement as musical rhythm. This software was implemented as a library of external objects for Max/MSP[12] that processes data from an object or library that performs frame-differencing analysis of a video stream in real time in this program...

Ontologies have been gaining interest and their use has been spreading in different applications fields. However, their use in the realization of applications might be further increased by the availability of more usable and efficient software library for the management of ontologies. In this paper, an object-oriented software library for the management of OWL ontologies is presented. This soft...

PDBlib is an extensible object oriented class library written in C++ for representing the 3-dimensional structure of biological macromolecules. PDBlib forms the kernel of a larger software framework being developed for assiting in knowledge discovery from macromolecular structure data. The software design strategy used by PDBlib, how the library may be used and several prototype applications th...

Formal approaches to software reuse rely heavily upon specification matchingcriterion, where a search query using formal specifications is used to search a library of components indexed by specifications. In previous investigations, we addressed the use of formal methods and component libraries to support software reuse and construction of software based on component specifications. A difficult...

The paper presents a hierarchical model for integrating structured HPC legacy software modules into a grid-adaptive scientific library service able to deliver quality computing-service on a performance contract basis. The service proactively administers both computing resources and configurable library software modules on behalf of client applications, and seamlessly supports their re-configura...
