Identifying and qualifying reusable software components

Conventional Program to Component-Based Software: A Critical Survey on Software Reuse

“…Caldiera and Basili [12] proposed one of the earliest methods to identify and qualify reusable components. They defined cost, usability, and quality as the three factors affecting the reusability.…”

An approach to program understanding by natural language understanding

“…Note that previous automated reuse component identification systems have employed an algorithmic approach to program understanding (Caldiera and Basili 1991) (as well as focusing on functionally-oriented code The use of informal tokens in this approach goes beyond that of Biggerstaff (Biggerstaff et al 1994). Biggerstaff's approach primarily concentrated on the simple matching of comment keywords.…”

Introducción breve a la ingeniería dirigida por modelos

“…In addition, there are many technological platforms, which mean that companies have to find experts on a specific platform o even people who can be adapted to develop software for different platforms, requiring time to learn and manage properly. All this, suggests that the development could be much more optimized if we can reuse not only part of the code that is generated daily for the different platforms, but also reuse the expertise in a concrete domain, and not only the personal experience, it would be interesting to incorporate the expertise that others have being acquired in the domain during the past of time (Caldiera and Victor, 1991).…”
