Reusability of Mathematical Software: A Contribution

Mathematical software is devoted to solving problems involving matrix computation and manipulation. The main problem limiting the reusability of existing mathematical software is that programs are often not initially designed for being reused. Therefore,...
Reusability in Programming: A Survey of the State of the Art

As programming passes the 30 year mark as a professional occupation, an increasingly large number of programs are in application areas that have been automated for many years. This fact is changing the technology base of commercial programming, and is ...
An experiment to determine software reusability factors (abstract)
CSC '90: Proceedings of the 1990 ACM annual conference on Cooperation

Software reusability has been proclaimed as the common sense solution to many software development problems. The concept of reusability promotes productivity because it avoids “reinventing the wheel.” Using existing components which are similar to the ...
