Reuse-Based Software Engineering: Techniques, Organizations, and Controls
暫譯: 基於重用的軟體工程：技術、組織與控制

Practical models and fundamental aspects of reuse-based software engineering

This volume provides an overview of the current state and the future of reuse-based software engineering and discusses the vital technical, managerial, and organizational aspects of reuse in one treatment. It also shows how these fundamental aspects can be used in the development life cycle of component-based software and product line engineering.

The authors present the basic foundations upon which reuse processes and approaches can be established and integrate theoretical concepts with applied practice. They also discuss the development of an effective large-scale discipline utilizing:

• The state of the art in multi-paradigm programming, design, and architectural techniques for codifying and packaging high-quality software artifacts that are widely applicable and cost-effective
• Effective organizations with the mandate and the resources to produce and manage a shared repository of software assets
• A set of control and management tools for planning, controlling, and evaluating the degree to which such an organization meets its objectives

Reuse-Based Software Engineering offers in-depth discussion of these fundamental issues and total coverage of the state of the art. The inclusion of review questions and exercises makes it an excellent tutorial for both academics and professionals.
