Framing Software Reuse


Book Description

Written by the inventor of the Bassett Frame Technology, this authoritative volume explains how cost-effectiveness of large I.S. departments can be improved 50-fold by implementing highly effective software engineering techniques. It identifies those techniques that work well together, and explains why they do.




Software Reuse: Methods, Techniques, and Tools


Book Description

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Software Reuse, ICSR-8, held in Madrid, Spain in July 2004. The 28 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on software variability: requirements; testing reusable software; feature modeling; aspect-oriented software development; component and service development; code level reuse; libraries, classification, and retrieval; model-based approaches; transformation and generation; and requirements.

Top Productivity Through Software Reuse


Book Description

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 12th International Conference on Software Reuse, ICSR 2011, held in Pohang, South Korea, in June 2011. The 16 revised full papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 43 submissions. They are presented together with one keynote, three workshop papers, a doctoral symposium report and two tutorials. Topics of interest are domain analysis and modeling; asset search and retrieval; architecture-centric approaches to reuse; component-based reuse; COTS-based development; generator-based techniques; domain-specific languages; testing in the context of software reuse; aspect-oriented techniques; model-driven development; reuse of non-code artifacts; reengineering for reuse; software product line techniques; quality-aspects of reuse; economic models of reuse; benefit and risk analysis, scoping; legal and managerial aspects of reuse; transition to software reuse; industrial experience with reuse; light-weight approaches; software evolution and reuse.

Software Reuse: Advances in Software Reusability


Book Description

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 6th International Conference on Software Reuse, ICSR-6, held in Vienna, Austria, in June 2000. The 26 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions. The book is divided into topical sections on generative reuse and formal description languages, object-oriented methods, product line architectures, requirements reuse and business modeling, components and libraries, and design patterns.




System on Chip Design Languages


Book Description

This volume is the third in a series. It brings together a selection of the best papers from two international electronic design language conferences in 2001. The conferences are the Hardware Description Language Conference (HDLCon) in USA; the Forum on Design Languages (FDL), in Europe. The papers cover a range of topics, including: HDL specification and modelling languages including results from standardisation process: from specialised languages such as VHDL and Verilog to general purpose languages such as C++ (SystemC, SpecC) and Java; Analogue and mixed signal specification and design; System on chip, real time and embedded specifications; Real life experiences in using HDLs; and EDA vendors point of view describing future design tools that tilise HDLs, such as Web design environments, simulation, verification and synthesis tools. The results presented in these papers will help researchers and practising engineers to keep abreast of developments in this rapidly evolving field.
